CAUTION:

Observe the following rules on the usage of the auto cutter:

•Every cut paper should be no less than 10 mm in length.

•When cutting a label roll, be sure to cut the base sheet. Never cut labels (tags).

CAUTION:

When using label sheet:

•Be sure to cut the base sheet at every label gap. Otherwise, the cutter performance will be immensely degraded.

•Never open the printer cover while printing as proper print operation may not be guaranteed. Opening the printer cover may alter label length setting or other parameters.

•Never use label rolls with different label sizes or label gaps as proper print operation will not be guaranteed.

CAUTION:

•With a label roll using black marking, the printer could print in label gaps. The user should take the necessary corrective action to avoid this.

•If black marking is used for label sensing, the printer can print over cut lines. This requires the appropriate user adjustment, however.
