Cutter

The label cutter consists of an internal mechanism that will cut labels or tags as they exit from the printer. The cutter can be used to print labels of various lengths using continuous form label/tag stock or to easily separate labels when there is no perforation at the label gap.

OPERATOR SETUP

The following steps should be taken to set up the label cutter.

1.Install the label cutter, following the instructions provided with the unit.

2.Power the printer ON.

3.The printer must be configured to use the Label Cutter option. Switches DSW3-1 and DSW3-2 on the front panel are used to configure the printer. To enable the cutter, DSW3-1 should be in the ON position and DSW3-2 should be in the OFF position.

4.Open the Print Head Assembly and feed the edge of the labels/tags into the cutter assembly and out between the label cutters.

NOTE: Although the cutting blade is fairly well protected, be careful as you feed labels into the cutter area. You may want to have the printer powered OFF at this point.

5.Close the Print Head Assembly and place the printer on-line.

6.The Label Cutter is ready for use.

7.Adjust the cut position using the backfeed adjustment procedures outlined in Section 2. Installation.

GENERAL OPERATION

The data stream to be sent to the printer may need to be altered to add the Cutter Command. If this command is not used, the cutter will default to cut after every label assuming it has been enabled in the printer configuration. As the labels are printed, they will be cut based on the the data supplied using the cutter command.
