Cleaning the Cutter Module
Periodically, the Cutter Module should be cleaned to remove paper dust and
label residue. Refer to Figure 4.3.
Clean the stationary cutter blade with a cotton swab moistened with a
citrus-based cleaner when it becomes gummed up with label adhesive or paper
debris. After cleaning, apply a small amount of petroleum lubricating grease to
the moving cutter parts.
Lubricating the Cutter Module
Certain applications or types of label stock may cause the cutter blades to
eventually start to squeak. This commonly occurs when less-than-full width
media is being used.
To eliminate the squeak and prolong cutter life, first turn off the printer. Next,
clean the lower cutter blade by following the above procedure. Then, coat a
cotton swab with a small amount of petroleum lubricating grease and wipe the
swab along the top of the lower cutter blade and on the surface of the ring at the
end of the rotary blade (refer to Figure 4.4).
