Intermec PF4I manual Cut-Off

Chapter 4—Media Load

Cut-Off

The EasyCoder PF4i Compact Industrial can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock in various forms. This section describes the case when the media is to be cut off by an automatic paper cutter (option).

Use the <Feed> key (see figure #12) when loading the same type of media. When switching to a new type of media or if the printer does not feed out the media properly, simultaneously press the <Shift> and <Feed> keys to perform a “testfeed.”

Cut-off can be used for:

•Non-adhesive continuous stock

•Self-adhesive labels with liner (cut only liner between labels)

The cutter is designed to cut through paper-based media with a thickness between 60 and 175 µm, whick roughly corresponds to a paper weight of 60 to 175 grams/m2 (basis weight 40 to 120 lb). The cutter should not be used to cut through labels, because the adhesive will stick to the shears, which can damage the cutter.

The cutter is held by a snap-lock and can be tilted forward to facilitate media load. A switch prevents the cutter from operating when in open position.

The optional label taken sensor cannot be used with the cutter.

The paper cutter can be used with both a standard edge guide and Quick-Load guides and with any type of side door. In this chapter, a printer with a standard edge guide and a long side door is illustrated.

There is no front door when a cutter is installed.
