[Description] Executes a partial cut of the roll paper.
[Recommended Functions]
This command is supported by some printer models but will not be supported by future printer models.
GS V is recommended for cutting paper. GS V <Function A> gives the same result as this command.
[Notes] ■See GS V <Function A>for details.
■The cutting shape depends on the specification of the mounted autocutter.
See program example and print sample for ESC i and ESC m.
[Model-dependent variations] TM-U220
TM-U220
This printer may make “dot displacement” after autocutting. It is recommended to feed
approximately 2.116 mm or more for printing the next line to prevent “dot displacement after
cutting.”
Since the TM-U220D is not equipped with an autocutter, this command is ignored by TM-U220D.
The setting is partial cut (one point is left) when the printer is shipped.
The distance from print head to autocutter is about 27 mm {1.06 inches} in the TM-U220A and
TM-U220B.
