Setup for Printing and Cutting
When cutting is performed after printing, the cap tip of the blade holder may scratch the printed surface. If this is the
case, lengthen the cutter blade extension.
Also, when time is required for the printed surface to dry, you can ensure an automatic wait for a fixed interval after
printing before cutting starts. For detailed information, go to the "Description of Menu Items" chapter, and under "De-
scription of Menus," see [DRYING TIME]. Note that in cases where you can also make this setting using the program,
the setting made here takes priority. Check the documentation for the program.
