To cut the length of Banner Paper

Before you load Banner Paper in the printer, count the number of sheets you need, add one sheet and separate the strip from the main stack after the extra sheet. This last sheet ensures that the last sheet being printed remains straight on the platen.

Always apply this “plus one” rule when preparing Banner Paper for a print job.

If you want to print two sheets, pull off a strip of three sheets, and so on.

If you want to print a banner of maximum length (20 sheets), pull off a strip of 21 sheets.
