Fully Utilizing Cutting Function

Hints and Tips for Cutting Setting

 Setting the [PREFEED] menu item to "ENABLE" makes the machine automatically feed out
media and take it up again before cutting. This makes it unnecessary to run out media to the
rear of the machine before the operation.
 P. 120, "Preventing Pulling of the Media with Undue Force When Performing Cutting Only"
 Switching off the media heating system and allowing the temperature to cool before perform-
ing cutting can yield results that are more stable.
 P. 106, "Making the Temperature Setting for the Media Heating System"
 The tip of the blade holder cap may scrape, and soil or damage the printed surface. If this
happens, increase the amount of blade extension.

Description
This feeds out media according to the size of the data sent from the computer before performing cutting. This
makes it unnecessary to turn the media flanges by hand to feed out media every time you perform cutting.
Note, however, that this feeds out media even when you're performing printing only, so set it to "DISABLE"
when not needed.
