Auto Cut Function

Access the Auto Cut Function settings by holding down the CODE key and pushing the "A. CUT" key.

Each setting of the Auto Cut Function consists of settings for three different cut methods:

• Full Cut - used to completely cut off the label.
• Half Cut - Used to cut laminated tape without cutting the label backing, making it easier to remove the backing paper from labels.
• Chain Printing - The last copy is not cut off, reducing the amount of tape that is wasted.

Chain printing is an economical function designed to help eliminate "wasted tape" at the beginning of labels. Without chain printing, the usual leftover tape from the previous printing session is wasted before the first label in the current session is printed. However, if an Auto Cut setting using chain printing is selected, the last label in the previous session remains in the machine (is not fed out). This allows the next label to be printed without wasting tape.

When the last label is printed push the FEED & CUT key to feed the chain of labels and cut it.

When setting 1, 2, 3 or 4 is selected, the Auto Cut indicator in the upper-right corner of the display comes on, indicating that the labels will be cut after the last label in the chain is printed.

NOTE

Labels are always cut after they are printed regardless of the current Auto Cut setting. When setting 5, 6, 7 or 8 is selected, the Auto Cut indicator does not come on.

The following Auto Cut settings are available:

NOTE

After printing a label on tape with the Auto Cut function set to 5, 6, 7 or 8, press the "FEED & CUT" key to feed the tape, then cut it. This function can also be specified with the Editor 3.2 software.
