5.2.6. Job Cancel & Roll media cut
With the Cancel key you are able to control both the cancel function and the media cut
function, depending on the condition of the printer.
The table below gives you an overview of the different possibilities:
Printer condition Result by pressing CANCEL
Idle status :
Roll Media is cut at the current position *
Receiving status :
Processing stops
Process status :
Buffer is cleared
Printing status :
Print is cancelled, Buffer is cleared and printed part
is cut-off.
* Sometimes, roll media is slightly damaged by packing tape.
In this case, use the “Roll Media Advance” function (Shift + Menu) to advance the media beyond the
damaged area, prior to sheeting off.
Note:
When you load a new roll of media, the beginning of the media might not be straight. In
this case, the edge of media should be cut straight.
To use the roll media cut function, proceed as follows:
Step 1:
Make sure that roll media is loaded and that the printer is not receiving, nor processing data. (The data light
is OFF)
Step 2:
Press the cancel key.
Step 3:
The roll media position is left unchanged and the roll media is being cut.
