Reducing the Amount of Cutting Dust
When you are using a media like backlight film that creates
a large amount of cutting dust, you can activate the cutter
dust reduction function to improve the quality of printing and
reduce damage to the printhead. The cutter dust reduction
function can be configured separately for each type of
media. (→ P.1-21)
If you activate the cutter dust reduction function, black lines
are printed at the leading edge and trailing edge of each
printed sheet.

Do not use this function for plain paper, thin paper, or
any other media that buckles easily. These types of
media may not cut properly and can cause paper jams.
Borderless printing cannot be performed when the
cutter dust reduction function is active. In order to
perform borderless printing, you must switch the cutter
dust reduction function off.
