Part 14
In case any foreign materials like a staple or paper clip or excessive paper
scraps fall into the auto cutter mechanism the auto cutter may lock up and so
does the print hood. In such case, please pull the cutter cover forward to
expose the cutter adjustment area. Apply some mechanical assistance in below
procedures to help resetting the cutter blade back to its home position. Please
lift up a transparent protective cover over the adjustment wheel with the printer
powered off. Turn this white color wheel downward for 4 ~ 5 strokes. Close
the cutter cover back and turn the printer power on to see if the auto cutter lock
up problem is resolved.
If the problem is not automatically resolved by above procedures,
please power off the printer and open the cutter cover again. Check in the
alignment window while turning the gear downward as above or with a small
Phillips screwdriver at the right side of the cutter mechanism. When the cutter
blade returns to its standard position, a hole in the white plastic gear will show
up in the window as illustrated in detailed picture above. Close the cutter cover
when finish. The lock up of the print hood can then be released after this
problem solved.
Please use manual cutter as temporary alternative measure once the
auto cutter malfunctioned.
