[Scan Wait Time] Specify the time to wait for the ink to dry between each scan in bidirectional printing,
in consideration of how quickly the paper absorbs ink. Note that printing will take
longer if you specify a wait time.
[Feed Priority] Specify exact paper feeding, if desired. Normally, select Automatic . Choose Print

Choose Forced to have 40 mm (1.6 in) cut off the leading edge of the roll, ensuring
a straight edge, after you load the roll. Scraps are then removed.
When Automatic is selected, if the left and right side of the leading edge of the roll
are uneven (by 3 mm [0.12 in] or more), the edge is cut an amount relative to the
slant to ensure a straight edge after you load the roll. Scraps are then removed.
If the unevenness is less than 3 mm or if No Cutting is selected, the edge is not cut
and scraps are not removed.
[Cutting Mode] Specify if the Cutter Unit is used for cutting.
Choose Automatic to have roll paper cut automatically after printing. If you choose
Eject , the paper will not be cut after printing. Instead, a line will be printed at the
cut position.
