Connecting to a Computer (2) I'm trying to install the printer driver using a USB Hub. The "Driver Setup" dialog box appeared andthe P-touch was connected, but the installation does not continue. I'm unable to print suddenly even though I could print a little while ago.

I cannot open [Label format definitions] from the Printing Preferences in Windows 7. After clicking [Label format definitions]the error message "Administrator privileges are required in order to use this utility." is displayed. What can I do? The message "The tape cassette installed in the machine does not match the type selected in the application." isdisplayed. (P-touch Editor for Windows)
Machine (8) Even if the battery has lost all its charge, can I still use the PT-18R? How do I reset the machine to the default settings? How do I stop printing immediately? I cannot read the display clearly (the screen is too light or dark). What can I do? My label is not cut automatically when printing. The ink ribbon (black tape) got caught in between the tape layers and came out of the printer, and the tape cannot be used. The tape got jammed in the printer or the tape got stuck inside the printer. Why will the battery not charge?
