Cutter

The cutter performs automatic cutting of receipts from a roll 70 or 57 mm wide.
Cutting is not continuous, but leaves a central non-cut portion for multiple receipts.
Cutter life ranges from 250 to 350 thousand cuts.
Important: for longer life, the cutter must be maintained clean and free of all paper shreds.

MICR reader

With the MICR reader option installed, the printer can read the CMC7 or E13B magnetic
characters of cheque code lines.
Legible cheques must be conforming to ISO recommendations 2033-1983.
