Chapter 6 Appendix • Do not use the paper with a hole or cutout. • Autocutting on the perforated lines may generate minute paper dust, causing machine problems. Also, autocutting ahead of the perforated line may cause problems when feeding paper. Therefore, autocutting must be performed 0.5 to 1 mm {0.02 to 0.039"} behind the perforated line. • When using fanfold paper, the black marks must be at least 2 mm {0.079"} from the perforated lines. • As for the black mark position on the die-cut label paper, match the label edge and the black mark edge. • The perforated lines on both sides of the paper edge must be left uncut.
• You can use paper with all fringes removed or paper with fringes on the left and right removed. • By setting the black marks on both sides, you can insert paper from either side.
