9.1.5 Hints for Use
(1) Do not back feed paper after cutting paper using the autocutter unit because it will cause a paper
jam.
(2) To prevent paper from jamming, feed paper or print feed more than 3 mm after cutting paper.
(3) To make the most efficient use of paper, as shown in Figure 9-5, print area A for the next print
portion after printing area B, and then cut the paper.
(4) If a partial cut is performed, the backlash absorption steps (40-step reverse rotation and 40-step
normal rotation) should be included when printing starts after cutting paper (after pulling paper).
* Do not print on the cut position.
