Autocutter (For Type A / B); Paper Roll Supply - Epson TM-U220 Reference Manual

1.5.1 Autocutter (for Type A / B)

Cutting method: By separated-blade scissors
Cutting type:
Note:
It is recommended to feed approximately 2.116 mm or more in advance before printing to prevent dot
displacement after cutting.
Changing between partial cut and full cut is not controlled by a software command.
The full cut setting is an optional factory setting.
CAUTION:
When the paper is cut completely (full cut) with the printer's horizontal installation, make
sure to remove the cut paper, then perform the next cut. Never allow several pieces of
the cut paper to remain in the paper exit because double cuts, paper jams, or
autocutter error may occur because the cut paper drops into the paper path.
