Cut-Off - Intermec EasyCoder PM4i User Manual

Chapter 4 — Media Load
Cut-Off
The EasyCoder PM4i can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous
stock in various forms. This section describes the case when the media is
to be cut off by an automatic paper cutter (option).
Use the <Feed> key (see fi gure #10) when loading the same type of
media. When switching to a new type of media or if the printer does not
feed out the media properly, simultaneously press the <Shift> and <Feed>
keys to perform a "testfeed."
Cut-off can be used for:
• Non-adhesive continuous stock
• Self-adhesive labels with liner (cut only liner between labels)
The cutter is designed to cut through paper-based media with a thickness
between 60 and 175 µm, which roughly corresponds to a paper weight
2
of 60 to 175 grams/m (basis weight 40 to 120 lb). The cutter should
not be used to cut through labels, because the adhesive will stick to the
shears, which can damage the cutter.
The cutter is held by a latch inside the media compartment and can be
tilted forward to facilitate media load. A switch prevents the cutter from
operating when in open position.
The optional label taken sensor cannot be used with the cutter.
There is no front door when a cutter is installed.
The cutter can be fi tted with an optional tray for collecting cut-off labels.
