Note:
When you turn the power off by mistake during the printing operation, the cutter blade may stop in the
paper feed line. So the paper may not be fed in the first operation normally when you turn the power on. If
the phenomenon happens again after removing the jammed paper, try the solution "Autocutter Jam"
(page 4-3).

4.3 Autocutter Jam

If a foreign object such as a push pin or paper clip drops in the autocutter and causes the auto
cutter to lock up, the printer enters an error state and begins the recovery operation
automatically.
If the problem is not serious, the autocutter returns to its normal position without any
intervention by the user.
If the autocutter does not return to its normal position by itself, follow the steps below to fix the
problem:
1. Open the roll paper cover, and remove the jammed object if there is one.
