If you use a pen for that purpose, it tends to get caught in the cassette. Then, you don't have a properly functioning cassette OR pen.

It's pretty obvious. In face, more people will probably think "rewind" than "write on label." Even kids. It's how the human brain thinks. They see the pen, the holes, and the brain does that "peg in the hole" stuff. Test FAIL.

Tape gets loose and falls out sometimes. you have to wind it up by puching the pen in one of the holes and turning counter clockwise. If too much tape came out or if the tape got twisted....just buy a new one.

Rewinding is clearly not ht eright answer because if you wanted to rewind tape manualy, then all pens and pencils in home were either round or thinner. Nails rock! And stand for mixing as well.
