Using the takeup roll
The takeup roll allows unattended printing by automatically winding printed media onto a core. In this mode, the
automatic cutter is disabled. When using this option, be sure that the media sensor on the printer's right leg is not
blocked.
Depending on the ambient humidity, temperature, and amount of ink coverage, you may want to turn on the
heater and/or set a dry time as described in Chapter 2.
Replacing the cutter
A cutter located in the ink cartridge carriage cuts roll media. The printer is shipped with the cutter installed. Use
the following procedure to replace the cutter, when necessary.
!
Be careful when handling the cutter to avoid injury.
!
Cutting media with a worn cutter can cause the media to jam and create a ragged cut line. Replace the cutter
to avoid this condition. Do not cut media on the printer with an external knife, as you could seriously damage
the platen and void the warranty.
