If cutting standard size labels and a

cut was performed, this completes

installation; or,

performance may be increased; see

“Increasing Small Label Throughput,”

below.

Configuring the Printer

The Cutter, a plug and play option, may require configuration if the default setup has changed:

Note: The Cutter can also be controlled by host software commands. Ensure that your labeling

program is properly set to cut, including the desired label size. To test the Cutter, see

“Testing the Cutter”; or, if problems occur, see “Troubleshooting” (below).

a) Press the MENU Key on the printer’s front panel. (See the Operator’s Manual for menu details.)

b) Using the DOWN ARROW Key, scroll to PRINTER OPTIONS then press the ENTER Key.

c) Using the DOWN ARROW Key, scroll to CUTTER then press the ENTER Key.

d) Using the DOWN ARROW Key, scroll to AUTO then press the ENTER Key.

e) Press the ESCAPE Key and then, at the SAVE CHANGES? prompt, select YES.

f) Turn the Power Switch OFF and ON to complete configuration.

Increasing Small Label Throughput

CUT BEHIND is a menu setting that allows the printer to queue then cut a specified number (0 – 2) of

small labels, where the elimination of repeated positioning operations can result in a throughput

increase. To achieve faster throughputs when cutting batches of small labels, follow the procedure

below to establish the queue amount and setup the printer:

a) Measure the length (L) of your media, label edge to label edge including gap, if any.

b) Calculate the Cut Behind number (N): Divide the distance** of 1.24 inches (31.50 mm) by the

length (L) of the media. N = 1.24 ÷ L

**This distance may vary between printers and require slight modification.

c) Calculate the Present Distance (PD): Subtract the product of the length (L) and the Cut Behind

number (N) from the distance** of 1.24 inches (31.50 mm). PD = 1.24 – (N x L)

d) Enter the calculated Present Distance (PD) in the PRINT CONTROL / PRESENT DISTANCE

menu.

e) Enter the calculated Cut Behind number (N) in the PRINTER OPTIONS / CUTTER / CUT

BEHIND menu, and then exit the menu and save your settings.

f) Test the setup: With the media installed, repeatedly press the FEED Key to verify the cut location

– if the location is incorrect adjust the PRESENT DISTANCE accordingly, adding distance to

move the cut farther out or subtracting to move it closer. When satisfactory, the printer is ready

for use.

Notes:

PRINT CONTROL / PRESENT DISTANCE cannot be set to AUTO.

SYSTEM SETTINGS / FAULT HANDLING / VOID AND RETRY should not be used with this

function.

During the setup process some queued blank labels may be lost.

See the Operator’s Manual for menu and other details.

Maintaining the Cutter

To ensure trouble free operation, the Cutter should be cleaned (using the items listed below) after printing

each roll of labels, and more often if the cutting action becomes sluggish.

Recommended Cleaning Items

Isopropyl alcohol

Cotton swabs

Compressed air or soft-bristle brush

CAUTION

Remove power before performing maintenance.

Cutter Blades are SHARP. Keep body parts away from the cutting surfaces.

Never use metal objects on the cutting surfaces.

Take proper precautions when using isopropyl alcohol, a flammable liquid.

Follow these steps to clean the Cutter:

1) Turn OFF the Power Switch and unplug

the power cord from the AC Receptacle.
