• Press the Power Button twice quickly to feed and cut the tape.
• When the Auto Cut option is selected, the minimum print length is 0.98 in. / 25 mm.
• Before each initial print, the label printer feeds an approximately 1 in. / 25 mm of blank tape.
• We recommend not selecting the Auto Cut option when printing multiple labels less than 0.98 in. / 25 mm. This
will save tape.
