2. 8.15 User Mode A2 (Auto Initial Cut: Length)
Under a certain usage environment, the first print of a job sometimes would have a wrinkle or an
image void if the prints are made with a roll media left in the deck for a long period.
“Auto Initial Cut” makes an automatic initial cut in a specified amount at the leading edge before
processing a job.
This setting can select the length to be cut of 300 / 450 / 600mm at the leading edge.
Setting value Description
600
The amount to be cut is 600mm long.
450
The amount to be cut is 450mm long.

A shorter choice can reduce waste of media but is not enough to remove one full revolution of the
roll.
