Dry Time (Between Pages)

Allows you to set the interval between the time each page is printed and the time it exits the printer. Since a certain waiting time is required for the ink to dry before the roll paper is cut, even whenautomatic cutting is set, you can cut the paper when the ink is dry.
The Dry Time (Between Pages) setting is effective only for roll paper.

Printer Default: Applies the settings configured in operation panel of the printer.
None: Documents are ejected immediately after printing is over.
30 seconds / 1 minute / 3 minutes / 5 minutes / 10 minutes / 30 minutes / 60 minutes: After printing is over, documents are ejected after the set time has elapsed.

Dry Time (Between Scans)

Allows you to set the interval between the printing of a scan on a page and the printing of the next scan. Prevents ink bleeding on a page or uneven coloring during borderless printing.

Printer Default: Applies the settings configured in operation panel of the printer.
None: Each scan is printed immediately after the previous one.
0.5 seconds / 1 second / 3 seconds / 5 seconds / 7 seconds / 9 seconds: After one scan has been printed, the next one will be printed after the set time has elapsed.
Increase the interval depending on the occurrence of bleeding and uneven coloring.

Roll Paper Safety Margin

Allows you to specify the length of the white margins on the edges of the paper in order to make even significantly curled paper adsorb to the platen.

Printer Default: Applies the settings configured in operation panel of the printer.
3mm: Prints in standard-size.
Choose this setting if there are no particular problems when printing.
20mm: Choose this setting in case of chafing against the print head, for example when using significantly curled paper.

Cut Speed

Allows you to select the speed of automatic cutting. Use it to adjust the automatic cutting function when clean cutting is not possible.

Printer Default: Applies the settings configured in operation panel of the printer.
Fast: Choose this if clean cut surfaces are not possible with the Standard setting.
Standard: Choose this if there are no particular problems with automatic cutting.
Slow: Choose it when using adhesive paper in order to prevent the glue from sticking to the cutter and to avoid a drop in cutting performance.

Automatic Cutting

You can set whether to have the paper cut automatically or to have cut lines printed on the paper.
The following settings can be configured for automatic cutting.

Printer Default: Applies the settings configured in the operation panel of the printer unit.
None: After printing is over, the printer goes on to print the next set of data without cutting the paper into individual pages.
