Removing a Printed Banner
Follow these steps to remove a printed banner using the cutting
guide:
1. Lower the banner paper cutting guide over the top of the
paper.
2. If you turned auto tear-off mode on (as instructed in step 1
on page 3-22), the printer automatically feeds the paper to
the tear-off position when it’s finished printing. If you
didn’t turn on auto tear-off mode, press the
