Setting Default Lines per Inch
This function allows you to set the default for lines per inch to either 7.6 or 6.
Note: The operator panel may differ depending on the model. To turn the printer on or
off, (on-line or off-line), use a paper clip or other pointed object to depress the plunger (in
place of the On Line button) on models with that item.
Caution: The DIP switches are pre-set at the factory and should generally not be changed.
If you must change them, do so carefully to avoid changing other functions. Run the print
test to see the current settings for this function. See “Testing The Printer” in chapter 2.
1. Turn the printer off.
2. Turn the printer over and note what the current DIP switch settings are.
3. Set the switches to match the lines per inch setting you want as the default setting
(when the printer is powered up).

Setting Partial Cut Distance
This function allows you to change the length of the partial knife cut: the higher the
number, the longer the cut.

off, (on-line or off-line), use a paper clip or other pointed object to depress the plunger (in
place of the On Line button) on models with that item.

test to see the current settings for this function. See “Testing The Printer” in chapter 2.
