11. Paper Cutter
11.1 Description
The EasyCoder 601 XP can easily be fitted with an optional Paper
Cutter unless the printer is not already fitted with an label-taken
sensor (see chapter 10). The cutter unit is fitted on the same hinges
as the front door, which it replaces, and is connected by a single
cable to the DIN-connector on the printer’s front.
The paper cutter is available both as a factory-installed option and
as a field-installable upgrading kit.
The paper cutter is intended to cut through continuous non-adhesive
paper strip or through the backing paper between labels. It must not
be used to cut through any kind of adhesive or other soft material,
that may stick to the cutting parts and render the cutter inoperable
– thus also causing possible damage to the electric motor.
Maximum paper thickness is 175
µ
m (
≈
175 grammes/m
2
) for
normal paper-based materials.
Minimum practical copy length is 38.1 mm (1.5")
The Paper Cutter increases the printer’s total weight by approx. 1.65
kgs (= 3.6 lbs) and its length by 28 mm (1.1").
The Paper Cutter can be tilted forward in order to facilitate cleaning
and paper load.
