MANUAL SETTING
Manual Setting is a standard mode in which each cut size is input individually for each project.
NOTE: When cut size is input as Preset Setting, “Preset Selection Setting” is automatically selected. “Manual Setting” and “Preset Selection Setting” cannot be selected simultaneously. Cancel all preset inputs to change “Preset Selection Set­ting” to “Manual Setting.” Refer to Fixed Preset Input/Cancel or Free Size Preset Input/Cancel on pages 12-13 for more information.
1. Turn on power. Machine is in stand-by mode. Previous cut size will be shown in LCD display.
2. Input cut size. The value of each digit is increased by pressing the “+” button, decreased by pressing the “-” button. Refer to the Cut Size Chart below. Abbreviate the value for cut size to the rst decimal place. NOTE: Setting range is 0, 2.5-9.9 inches. When cut size is set to 0, the paper is fed without bursting.
3. Refer to Preparation Before Operation on page 9.

LOADING PAPER
1. Fan the sheets to loosen, which will decrease static electricity and reduce the chance of a paper jam or misfeed.
2. Lower the up/down lever on the paper feed tray and place the paper on the tray. Adjust the paper feed guides on both sides, then tighten the setscrews.
3. Adjust the paper feed pressure adjustment lever to the thickness of the paper. Usually it is set to “NORMAL.”
If the paper cannot be fed, set the pressure adjust lever to “HEAVY.”
If double feeding occurs, set the lever to “LIGHT.”
4. Raise the up/down lever.
