❏Make sure that Normal Cut, Single Cut, or Double Cut is selected as the Auto Cut in the printer driver. For Windows, see "Selecting the Roll Paper Option settings" on page 68. For Mac OS X, see "Roll Paper Option" on page 29.

❏Cut the roll paper by hand if necessary. Check that the paper thickness of the roll paper loaded in the printer matches the paper specification (see "Paper" on page 234). If so, the paper cutter blade may be blunt and require replacement. See "Replacing the Paper Cutter Blade" on page 180.
