For this paper, we recommend keep- ing the preset cutting mode. • If documents printed using Automatic, Eject, or manual cutting are short, rolls are advanced a specific amount before cutting to prevent problems with cutting and paper ejection. This may create a wider bottom margin, in some cases. Cut rolls manually in the following cases: Eject (waiting for ink to dry after printing) Important• When cutting wide printed documents after ejection, have two people support the documents.

Cutting the Leading Edge of Roll Paper Automatically If the leading edge of a roll is crooked or warped, it may cause an error message or printing problems. In this case, set Trim Edge First to Automatic or On on the Control Panel to have the printer cut the leading edge to make the edge straight after you load a roll. Trim Edge First offers the following options. • Automatic If the left and right side of the leading edge of the roll ((a) and (b)) are uneven by 40 mm (1.6 in) or more when you load the roll, the edge is cut an amount relative to the slant to ensure a straight edge, and scraps are removed. The edge is not cut if the unevenness is less than 40 mm. However, paper may sometimes be cut, depending on the state of the leading edge. • Off The edge is not cut and scraps are not removed.
