Yes
Eject (when
the paper
surface is
being
scratched /
to wait for
ink to dry)
Select this to move the cutter by key operation and
cut paper. Although there are cases with Automatic
in which the paper falls and the paper surface is
scratched, you can avoid damaging the paper with
this method since you can cut by holding the paper
with your hand so that the paper does not fall when
cutting. Also, since you can cut while visually con-
firming the drying of the ink, you can avoid ejecting
paper before the ink has dried.
To cut the roll with the Cutter Unit, press the Cut but-
ton.
Eject Yes
Manual

media that

strongly and rubs the printhead.
Cut each page from the roll using scissors. For con-
tinuous printing (if you will cut each page later), se-
lect Automatic Cutting > Yes or select Print Cut

Note
•
Automatic and Eject are valid only when you have selected Automatic Cutting > Yes in the printer driver.
•
With Eject, printing does not resume after a series of jobs have been printed continuously until the roll is cut.
•
Eject is the preset selection in Cutting Mode for some types of paper. For this paper, we recommend keeping the
preset cutting mode.
•
If documents printed using Automatic, Eject, or manual cutting are short, rolls are advanced a specific amount before
cutting to prevent problems with cutting and paper ejection. This may create a wider bottom margin, in some cases.
Cut rolls manually in the following cases:
