Cutting/Printing and Cutting

This section explains printers equipped with a cutting function.
Do not use the media clamps during cutting.
Assurance of Accuracy When Performing Printing and Cutting
When the heater is used, the media may experience subtle deformation due to thermal expansion or contraction. For this
reason, no assurance is made with respect to the following points when the heater is used.
• Distance accuracy (when cutting)
• Repetition accuracy (when cutting)
• Repetition between printing and cutting
• Alignment accuracy for printing and cutting when reloading media
Using crop marks when performing printing and cutting, even when these are performed simultaneously, may help reduce
misalignment. After printing, it is a good idea to allow the heater to cool before performing cutting.
1. Carry out only printing, with crop marks.
2. Switch off the controller to turn off the heater, and allow the media and platen to cool sufficiently.
3. Use the crop marks to align.
4. Carry out only cutting.
For detailed information about aligning using crop marks, refer to the user's manual for the printer.
To Perform Cutting Only
Before performing cutting, switch off the controller to turn off the heater, and allow the platen to cool sufficiently.
