WARNING!

The cutter is sharp, so care must be taken not to injure your fingers when handling the cutter.

CAUTION!

1.When using a label stock, be sure to cut the gaps. Cutting labels will cause the glue to stick to the cutter, which may affect the cutter quality and shorten the cutter life.

2.Use of tag paper which thickness exceeds specified value may affect the cutter life. For the specification of the media, refer to Section 7.1 Media.
