Citizen CL-E720DT [12/16] Auto cut length detection

-12-

7. Auto cut-length detection

If media with a cut length shorter than the minimum cut length of 25.4 mm

(1.0 in) is used, the cut media may remain in the cutter unit and cause paper

jams. To prevent this, when the printer detects a cut length shorter than the

minimum, it feeds the media without operating the cutter. Therefore, use a cut

length of 25.4 mm (1.0 in) or longer when setting the media cut length.

Note

Media is fed and not cut when its media cut length is 12.7 mm (0.5 in) or

less. However, if the total length of several labels (for example, two or more)

on one label sheet is more than 12.7 mm (0.5 in), the media can be cut in

intervals of multiple labels (for example, every two or more labels).
