Lubricating the Knife

We recommend lubricating the knife after using 15 rolls of supply or performing 100,000 cuts.

To prevent excessive wear on the knife, regularly lubricate the knife cams. The cam are located directly below the guiding holes.

To lubricate the knife:

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Lightly coat a long cotton swab with multi-purpose grease.

3. Insert the cotton swab into one of the two guiding holes until it stops on the cam.

4. Move the cotton swab up and down several times to coat the cam with grease.

5. Repeat steps 2 – 4 for the other cam.

6. Wipe off any excess grease from the top cover of the knife.

7. Turn on the printer.
