Note
•
Automatic and Eject are valid only when you have selected Auto Cut > Yes in the printer driver.
•
With Eject, printing does not resume after a series of jobs have been printed continuously until the roll is cut.
•
Eject is the preset selection in Cutting Mode for some types of paper. For this paper, we recommend keeping the preset
cutting mode.
•
If documents printed using Automatic, Eject, or manual cutting are short, rolls are advanced a specific amount before cutting
to prevent problems with cutting and paper ejection. This may create a wider bottom margin, in some cases.
Cut rolls manually in the following cases:
Eject (when the paper surface is being scratched / to wait for ink to dry)
Important
•
When cutting wide printed documents after ejection, have two people support the documents. If the paper drops, printed
documents may be damaged.
•
Do not lift the paper when holding printed documents before cutting. If the paper rises, it may affect the printing quality or
cause rough cut edges.
