Cutting Paper; Malfunction And Remedy - Microlife PR 1KA1 Instruction Manual

4.6. Cutting paper

Once you finish the printing job, check the paper to
see if it is easy to tear off.
• If it is not long enough to tear off, please depress
the "Paper Feeding" button to lengthen the paper.
Note:
• Don't pull out the paper if you'd like to cut it.
• Try to lower down the paper, pulling it forward over
the paper cutter.
• The paper has to be vertical (90 degree) with the
paper cutter; otherwise, the paper will be difficult
to tear off.
• The print on the paper does not last forever. It fades over time. This is normal for
thermal printers such as the Microlife diagnostic printer. The readability lasts
longer the less the print is in contact to light. If you file the printed paper in a
folder, the print lasts very long. In case you would like to store the values forever,
we recommend to photocopy them or transfer the data to another media.
