The power key (o) is located in the upper-
right corner of the machine's keyboard. If the
P-touch has remained plugged in, the previous
session's text is displayed when you turn it on
again. This feature allows you to stop work on a
label, turn off the machine, and return to it later
without having to re-enter the text.
If the PT-9600 is being operated from its
rechargeable battery, the machine will automat-
ically turn off if no key is pressed or no opera-
tion is performed for 5 minutes.
