118 EasyCoder PX4i and PX6i Service Manual
Chapter 11 — Paper Cutter
11.1 Description
The EasyCoder PX4i and PX6i can easily be fi tted with an optional cutter
unless the printer is not already fi tted with an label taken sensor (see
Chapter 10). The cutter unit is fi tted on the same hinges as the front door,
which it replaces, and is connected by a single cable to the DIN-connector
on the printer’s front.
The cutter is available both as a factory-installed option and as a fi eld-
installable upgrading kit.
The cutter is intended to cut through continuous non-adhesive paper strip
or through the liner between labels. It must not be used to cut through any
kind of adhesive or other soft material, that may stick to the cutting parts
and render the cutter inoperable or even damage the electric motor.
Maximum paper thickness is 175 µm (≈ 175 g/m
2
) for normal paper-based
materials.
Minimum practical copy length is 38.1 mm (1.5 inches.)
The cutter increases the total weight of EasyCoder PX4i and PX6i respec-
tively by approx. 1.0/1.65 kg (2.2/3.6 pounds). In both cases, the length is
increased by 28 mm (1.1 inches).
The cutter can be tilted forward in order to facilitate cleaning and media
load.
The cutting edge will rotate to home position when the power is
switched on and when the printer is rebooted. Always keep the cutter
unit in closed position during operation
