Cutting Roll Paper
The printer has a built-in cutter that can automatically cut most paper types. When Auto Cut is turned on,
paper is automatically cut after each page prints, or if the roll paper leading edge is not straight.
To switch between automatic or manual cutting methods, adjust the Auto Cut settings in the printer
driver. The setting selected in the printer driver overrides the control panel setting.
Note: The built-in cutter cannot cut roll paper segments that are shorter than 3.93 inches (100 mm). If
the length of roll paper in the eject slot is less than 3.93 inches (100 mm), additional paper is fed
automatically until that length is reached.

Cutting Roll Paper Manually
You can keep your prints on the roll until you manually cut them.
1. Turn off the Auto Cut setting in the printer driver or the control panel, depending on the situation:
• If you want to cut the paper manually, turn off the setting in the printer driver. Select Advanced >
Roll Paper Option > Auto Cut.
Note: The Auto Cut setting in the printer driver takes priority over the setting in the control panel.
The printer driver setting returns to automatic cutting when you close the application.
• If you are using a paper type that cannot be cut with the built-in cutter, turn off the setting in the
control panel. From the roll paper information area, select Advanced Media Setting > Auto Cut >
Off.
2. Print your document.
