Basic Procedures
Reducing the Amount of Cutting Dust
When using a media like backlight film that easily creates
cutting dust you can perform the setting to reduce the
amount of cutter waste that can cause a deterioration in the
quality of printing or damage the printhead. The cutter dust
reduction function can be set for each media type.
(→ P.1-21)
If you set the cutter dust reduction function, black lines will
print at the leading edge and trailing edge of the printed
sheets.
Important
z Do not use this function for plain paper, thin paper, or
any other media that buckles easily. This type of media
may not cut properly and cause paper jams.
z Borderless printing cannot be performed with the
cutter dust reduction feature is set. In order to perform
borderless printing, you must switch the cutter dust
reduction function off.
