Cutting the Media

NOTE

When a new roll of media is mounted, the leading edge of the media may not be straight. In this case, the leading edge of the media should be cut.

The [CANCEL] key can be switched between the cancel function and the media cut function, depending to the status of the printer. You should use it in accordance with your need.
