Cutter Replacement

The animation sequence shows the complete
procedure for the replacement of the paper cutter in
your printer.

Prerequisites

Before attempting to replace the cutter you must
contact your local

HP Customer Care

center to:

Order the replacement cutter.

Receive instructions on how to access the Front
Panel Service Menu.

Important Information

The cutter unit is attached to the printer by a black
cutter holder that runs along the metal guide rail,
and is hooked onto the edge of the

platen

at the

front of the printer.

The cutting wheel is inside the cutter unit.

Do not remove the cutter holder.

When inserting the new cutter, with the cutter holder raised to about 45 degrees, partially insert the cutter so it
rests in the cutter holder, but do

NOT

clip it in at this stage.

CAUTION:

Be very careful when replacing the cutter because you can easily break the cutter holder if you

apply too much force.
