For SC-T5400 Series and SC-T3400 Series,
check that the paper basket attached to the
stand is open.
Note:
Close the paper basket before printing banners or
other documents of sizes that will not fit in the
paper basket. Before the paper ejected from the
printer touches the floor, we suggest that you take
it in both hands close to the paper eject slot and
continue to lightly support it until printing is
complete.
Cutting the Roll Paper
Auto Cut
Auto Cut is set to On for the printer by default. When
On is set, the roll paper is cut automatically at the
following times.
❏ When the leading edge is detected as not
horizontal
After the roll paper is loaded, the leading edge
part is cut straight.
❏ When printing of one page is finished
The roll paper is cut before printing of the next
page starts.
If you do not want to cut each page or you want to cut
at a desired position, see the following procedure.
Cutting after Last Page Printed or at
Desired Position
Turn off auto cut in the printer driver, print, and then
cut using the Feed/Cut Paper menu of the printer
after printing finishes.
A
Select Off in Advanced - Roll Paper Option -
Auto Cut of the printer driver and then print.
Leave the auto cut setting of the printer on.
Note:
❏ The auto cut setting of the printer driver has
priority over that of the printer. The auto cut
setting of the printer driver is reset to the
default setting of Normal Cut when the
application closes.
❏ To turn off auto cut for HP-GL/2 mode
printing, enlarged copying, or direct printing
from a USB flash drive, turn off the auto cut
setting of the printer. Touch the Roll paper
information area - Advanced Media Setting
- Auto Cut - Off from the Home screen. The
change to the setting is saved as a setting of
the currently selected paper type.
B
Touch the Roll paper information area - Feed/
Cut Paper from the Home screen of the printer
after printing finishes.
Use the buttons displayed on the screen to cut
and feed the paper.
When cutting at the printer default cut
position (right after the bottom margin)
Touch the
(Cut) button. The paper is cut
and the paper leading edge returns to the print
wait position.
When cutting at desired position
With the front cover closed, while looking
into the printer, touch and hold down the
(Forward) or (Backward) button until the
position you want to cut comes to the
position of the dotted line in the figure.
A cut position cannot be set further inside
than the bottom margin.
