Starting Cutting Output

WARNING

Never touch the print-head carriage while output is in progress.

The print-head carriage moves at high speed. Coming into contact with the moving carriage may cause injury.

CAUTION

Do not touch the dancer roller needlessly.

The media take-up unit and feeder may move suddenly, which may result in injury.

Procedure
  1. Close the front cover.
  2. Tap Panel_Icon_Home to display the home screen.

    IMPORTANT

    Output is not possible in these situations

    • The machine does not run when a cover (front, left, or right) is open.

    • Data from the computer is not accepted when Load media. is displayed.

    • On menu screens where Menu operation in progress: Press [Home] to enable output. is displayed, output doesn't start even when data is sent from the computer. When you return to a menu item where output is possible or tap Panel_Icon_Home to return to the home screen, output starts.

    Points that must be observed

    • Never open a cover (front, left, or right) while output is in progress. Doing so interrupts printing.

    • During output, do not touch the media. Doing so may obstruct the media feed or cause the media to rub against the print heads, which may result in a paper jam or damage to the heads.

    • Keep the loading lever raised when the machine is not in use.

    When not using the machine, remove any media and store it in a suitable environment.

    • If the machine is left with the media loaded, the media may be damaged, which may adversely affect printing. When not using the machine, remove any media and store it in a suitable environment.
