Adjusting the Cutting-in Amount
When you want to perform accurate and fine
adjustment of the cutting-in amount, such as
when cutting media with thin carrier paper, you
can obtain good results by adjusting the tip of the
blade. Turn the cap portion of the blade holder
to adjust the amount of blade extension. Each
indicator tick corresponds to 0.1 millimeters, and
adjustment for 0.5 millimeters can be made by
rotating the cap one full turn.
Rough Estimate for the Amount of Blade Extension
Use the following dimension as a rough estimate for setting the amount of blade extension.
Note that making the amount of blade extension too small may cause the end of the
cap for the blade holder to touch and damage the printed surface. It's important to
be especially careful about this when you're using media that has poor ink-adhesion
properties.
