POSITIONING THE PAPER CUTTER

Design the position of the paper cutter so that the paper cutter is within the recommended range as

shown below.

If the distance between the edge of the paper cutter and position reference hole A of the printer is less

than 6.9 mm, the paper cutter may interfere with the platen block when it is opened or closed.

If the distance between them is more than 7.5 mm, the paper is not pressed against the cutter edge and

it is difficult to cut. Therefore, position the paper cutter so the distance between the edge of the paper

cutter and the position reference hole A of the printer is from 6.9 to 7.5 mm.

Figure 6-4 shows the recommended position

Figure 6-4 Paper Cutter Mounting Position

Use a cutter with a sharp edge so that paper can be cut easily without excessive force.

Figure 6-5 shows the shape of the blade of the paper cutter that should be used.

Figure 6-5 The Blade of the Paper Cutter

In the left cutter of Figure 6-5, the cut paper may be caught by the blade of the cutter and rolled inside.

Therefore, use a cutter with the shape of a blade that will not catch the cut paper as in Figure 6-5 to the

right.
