Cutter replacement
The graphical sequence shows the complete procedure for the replacement of the paper cutter in your printer.
Prerequisites
Before attempting to replace the cutter you must contact your local HP Customer Care center to:
•Order the replacement cutter.
•Receive instructions on how to access the front panel Service menu.
Important information
•The cutter unit is attached to the printer by a black cutter holder that runs along the metal guide rail, and is hooked onto the edge of the platen at the front of the printer.
•The cutting wheel is inside the cutter unit.
•Do not remove the cutter holder.
•When inserting the new cutter, with the cutter holder raised to about 45 degrees, partially insert the cutter so it rests in the cutter holder, but do NOT clip it in at this stage.
CAUTION: Be very careful when replacing the cutter because you can easily break the cutter holder if you apply too much force.
