paper remaining in the cutting unit.
The remaining pieces of paper are stuck between blades.
• Slide the selector switch into the ‘REV’ position or press and
hold the ‘CLEAR’ button.
The automatic paper feed does not
work properly after having used the

hold the ‘CLEAR’ button.
The automatic feed stops, however
there is still paper in the insertion slot.
The paper was inserted into the insertion slot at an angle.
• Ensure the paper is straight as it goes into the insertion slot.
The paper is too soft, thin, damp or creased.
• Fold, dry or flatten the paper.
The device does not work, although no
