15.1 Cutter
CAUTION: The cutter blade is very sharp. Do not place your ngers in the cutter.
• Locate the cutter mechanism at the left of the cartridge bay. The moving portion of
this mechanism is a scissor-like blade, visible when looking at the left wall of the
cartridge bay.
• Rub the swab along the flat and sharp surfaces of the blade. Try to remove any
build-up present.
• Locate the cutter shear bar. This is another metal part, located to the left of the
platen roller when facing the printer straight on. Clean this part using the cleaning
swabs in the same fashion as the scissor blade. Swab the face, corners, and two
sides of this part.
• Check the label exit chute for buildup. If necessary, clean this portion of the plastic
housing in the same manner.
