Problems with my Brother label-maker

[Poetess]

I just invested in a Brothers P-touch, Model PT-1280. I must have fooled around with the tab setting or something, and my print is coming out very small even though I selected large.

I have gone over the little "user manual" several times, and went through and tried a few different settings, but still the same result. I even tried taking the batteries out for several minutes, in the futile hope it would revert to its initial settings.

Meantime, I have been wasting label tape, spending way too much time on this, and feeling frustrated -- not mind like water, at all.

Can anyone out there help me? I sure would appreciate it!
