Cutter Error
Blade Open (down)
Blade Closed (up)
The printer detected a cutter malfunction:
1. Pause the print job.
2. Open the pivoting deck.
3. Unlatch the cutter and rotate it down. Inspect the cutter to determine
if the blade is in the open (down) position. See photographs on left.
4. If the blade is in the open (down) position and a label is stuck in the
cutter, remove it. Press the Feed Key to clear the error. Go to step 6.
5. If the blade is in the closed (up) position, turn the printer power off.
Wait 5 seconds then turn the printer power on. After the printer
finishes initialization the blade moves to the open (down) position.
Remove any label or debris stuck in the cutter.
6. Feed the media through the cutter slot, then close and latch the
cutter.
7. Close the pivoting deck.
8. Press the Feed Key to clear the error.
9. Resume printing.
Note: If a Cutter Error reoccurs, repeat steps 1 to 6, then use the
Configuration Tool “Cut Rev” function before resuming the print job. If
problems persist, use the “Cut Fwd” function.
