TIP: To cut roll paper while the automatic cutter is disabled, see Form feed with or without cutting
on page 37.
Form feed with or without cutting
If you go to the front panel and tap , then Form feed and cut, the printer advances the paper and makes a
straight cut across the front edge. There are at least two possible reasons why you might want to do this:
● To trim the leading edge of the paper if it is damaged or not straight.
● To feed and cut the paper when the automatic cutter has been disabled.
NOTE: The printhead is serviced after each print, and the paper cannot be cut until the process completes, so
you may notice a delay.
CAUTION: Remove the cut piece from the output platen. If strips or short prints are left on the output platen,
the printer could jam. Check also that there are no pieces of paper in the cutter guide.
NOTE: Photo and coated paper requires careful handling, see Print is scued or scratched on page 99.
To advance the paper without cutting it, go to the front panel and tap , then Form feed.
