As long as Brother provides the tape [it does provide 6 mm tape], the instructions are the same: see https://www.manualslib.com/manual/219223/Brother-Pt-1700.html?page=8#manual.

Brother TZ tapes are only available in the following widths for this machine:1/4"(6mm), 3/8"(9mm), 1/2"(12mm) and 3/4"(18mm).To insert a new tape cassette:(1) Lift the cassette cover so that you can reach the tape cassette easily. This willalso release the installed cassette.(2) If there is a tape cassette already in the compartment, remove it by pulling itstraight up.(3) Remove the stopper from a new tape cassette and if the tape is loose, useyour @257;nger to wind it in the direction of the arrow on the tape cassette until itis taut. If you are using a previous tape, ensure the tape is taut prior to insert-ing it into the unit.Note:Some tape cassettes are not provided with a stopper.(4) Insert the tape cassette @257;rmly into the compartment.(5) Shut the compartment cover.(6) Advance the tape by holding down the CODE key and pressing the FEED keyonce, then cut the tape.
Please respond to my effort to provide you with the best possible solution by using the "Acceptable Solution" and/or the "Helpful" buttons when the answer has proven to be helpful.
