Installing Tools
You can use the following tools with this machine:
Cutter:
This tool is selected when an image printed on a media
is cut or when letters are cut with a cutting media.
Pen (water-based ballpoint pen):
This tool is used to perform "test printing" for checking
how images or letters are actually cut.
When a Cutter Is Used
How to install a cutter
1
Remove the cap located at the edge by
rotating it, and replace the cutter with a
new one using tweezers or the like.
2
Turn the adjusting knob to adjust the
protruding amount of the cutter.
• Turn the adjusting knob in the direction indicated
by the arrow in the figure below to bring out the
cutter blade. (With each turn of the adjusting
knob, the cutter blade advances 0.5 mm.)
Adjusting the protrusion of the cutter
blade
Adjust the cutter blade according to the types of the
cutters and the sheet for use.
After adjusting the blade edge, set the cut condition and
perform test cut to check whether cutting is performed
well.
For the cutter supplied with the unit, the protruding
amount of the blade can be adjusted with the cutter
attached to the tool holder.
1
Turn the adjusting knob to adjust the
protruding amount of the cutter blade.
• You can bring out the cutter blade by turning the
adjusting knob clockwise.
(With each turn of the adjusting knob, the cutter
blade advances 0.5 mm.)
• Do not touch the cutter with your fingers.
Sharp cutter tip may injure you.
• Do not shake the tool after having set the cut-
ter.
Otherwise, the blade edge may pop out, causing
you to get injured.
• Keep the cutter out of reach of children. Dispose of
the used cutter blade in compliance with the appli-
cable regulations.
• Take care not to protrude the blade too much. If
the cutter is used with its blade excessively pro-
truded, the cutter can cut out the base paper, thus
damaging the machine.
• If you are using a cutter other than the one sup-
plied with the machine, refer to
P.5-22 "Adjusting
blade edge of cutters other than supplied one"
for information about how to adjust the cutter
blade.
