Troubleshooting

This section gives troubleshooting tips in case of problems.
Cause
The roll paper is warped.
Paper is jammed by the paper feed
slot.
After a roll was advanced, the
paper was manually pulled out
by force, closing the Paper Feed
Slot .
The paper source selection is
incorrect.
The paper is bent or curled at the
cut position.
Paper rises by the ends of the cut
position before it is cut.
You are using paper that cannot be
cut with the Cutter Unit .
Cut Speed is not configured
correctly in the Control Panel
menu.
During cutting, the paper falls at an
angle.
The printed document became
caught on a foreign object by
the Output Tray , which lifted the
document. The Cutter passed
under the paper.
In the printer driver, No or Print
Cut Guideline is specified in Auto
Cut .
In the Control Panel menu,
Cutting Mode is set to Eject or
Manual .
Keeping a roll in the printer for a
long time without printing on it may
leave a depression on the leading
edge.
Corrective Action

Remove the foreign object by the Output Tray to
enable the printer to eject the printed document,
keeping it level.
Specify Yes in Auto Cut in the printer driver.
If the Cutting Mode is Eject , press the Cut button to
cut the paper.

or the like.
When printing quality is most important, we
recommend setting TrimEdge Reload to On or
Automatic so that the paper edge is automatically cut
before printing.
