Cutter Adjustment - Epson Stylus Pro 7400 Service Manual

EPSON Stylus Pro 7400/7800/9400/9800

1.4.4.12 Cutter Adjustment

This menu is provided to adjust a position to cut top and bottom edges of media to
produce a full-bleed print on all four sides (Borderless print). So, the menu is enabled
only when the "Roll Auto Cut ON" is selected as paper source.
When you press the [Enter] button with the EXECUTE highlighted, the printer prints a
cutter position adjustment pattern and cuts the pattern at its center. The adjustment can
be made simply by entering a number printed with the most accurately cut block
pattern into the entry screen.
If you select this menu with the paper source set to other than the "Roll Auto Cut ON",
the printer stops to operate displaying a message "Commanded Function Can Not Be
Executed" for three seconds, and then returns to the Printer Setup menu screen.
Cutter position adjustment pattern
The pattern is comprised of 17 two-toned blocks as shown in the figure below. The
blocks of exactly the same size are neatly aligned and the boundary of the two
colors on them is slightly shifted by each block. They are cut off at their horizontal
center. The difference in color between the upper and lower portions of each block
makes it easier to find out which one is most accurately cut on the boundary of the
two colors.
