IMPORTANT

When printing and cutting or just cutting, rewind the media from the take-up device to slacken the media.

If sufficient media is not wound on the paper tube immediately after setup, this operation may not be performed well, lowering the cutting quality and preventing continued take-up. When performing cutting immediately after attaching the media to the paper tube, first feed enough media to carry out take-up a few times and set the base point.

This completes the setup of the media.
