About Borderless Printing
•
When performing borderless printing on paper where the ink does not dry well, the cutter unit may leave
scratches where it touches the printed surface, or may not cut correctly. In this kind of situation, configure the

Roll Paper Settings
dialog
box.
Alternatively, if the paper cannot be cut well by the cutter, set the
Automatic Cutting Settings
to
User Cut
in
the
Roll Paper Settings
dialog box, and cut the roll paper using scissors, etc.
