Printing and Cutting Positions
Manual-cutter position
Autocutter blade position
Center of the print dotline
The values above may vary slightly as a result of paper slack or variations in the paper.
Take this into account when setting the cutting position of the autocutter.
The cut paper may be pulled at the cut edge when it is removed, causing reduced printing pitch for
the first line of the next receipt. To prevent dot displacement, after cutting, feed the paper
approximately 1 mm {14/360"} or more before the first line of printing.
A paper jam may occur inside the autocutter if the printer is left unused for a long time with paper
left loaded in the printer. When operating the autocutter after leaving the printer unused for a long
time, feed paper of 40 mm {1.57"} or longer before operating the autocutter to prevent paper jams.
