Cutter
The cutter is an optional device which is used to cut off sections of
continuous media after printing. When a cutter is installed, the Label
Taken Sensor cannot be used (For help, see “Label Taken Sensor (LTS)” on
page 59). The cutter can cut non-adhesive media 64 to 114 mm (2.52 to
4.4 in) wide and with a thickness of 60 to 250 μm (2.3 to 9.8 mils).
The main parts of the cutter are:
• Cutter mechanism
• Cutter PCB
The cutter is controlled from the software application, such as Fingerprint,
InterDriver, or LabelShop). For more information, see the printer user’s
guide.
Never use the cutter to cut through any kind of adhesive. The adhesive
will get stuck on the shears and can render the cutter inoperable or
even damage it. If you need to cut self-adhesive labels, be careful to
only cut through the liner between labels.
Mit der Schneidvorrichtung niemals klebstoffhaltiges Material
schneiden. Der Klebstoff haftet an den Scheren an und kann die
Schneidvorrichtung unwirksam machen oder beschädigen. Falls
selbstklebende Etiketten geschnitten werden müssen, darf dies nur
durch den Bogen zwischen Etiketten erfolgen.
