Moving The Carriage; Installing The Cutter - ENCAD 212528-05 Quick Start Manual

Moving the carriage

When not in use, the ink cartridges rest in the service station at the right side of
the printer. This device seals the inkjets to prevent them from drying out. With
the power turned on, select Utility Menu/Access Cartridge on the control
panel to move the carriage away from the service station so that you can install,
change, adjust or clean the ink cartridges, change the cutter, or clean the service
station. Caution: Do not move the carriage manually as you could damage
the printer.

Installing the cutter

A cutter located in the ink cartridge carriage cuts roll media. The printer is
shipped with the cutter installed.
! Be careful when handling the cutter to avoid injury.
! Cutting media with a worn cutter can cause the media to jam and create
a ragged cut line. Replace the cutter to avoid this condition. Do not cut
media on the printer with an external knife, as you could seriously dam-
age the platen and void the warranty.

To install the cutter
1 Press Utility Menu/Access Cartridge button to move the carriage
out from the service station.
2 The cutter fits in the printer on the left side of the carriage. To remove
an older cutter, push the cutter lever down and pull it out. Install the
new cutter by pushing it into the slot until it clicks into place.
3 Press Utility Menu/Access Cartridge to move the carriage back
into the service station. This ensures that the cutter blade is in the
home position.
