Load Media in Cutter Mode
A cutter is a rotating knife with a self-sharpening blade that is attached to the front of the
printer. The cutter is used to cut individual labels as they are printed.

Caution • While performing any tasks near an open printhead, remove all rings, watches,
hanging necklaces, identification badges, or other metallic objects that could touch the
printhead. You are not required to turn off the printer power when working near an open
printhead, but Brady recommends it as a precaution. If you turn off the power, you will lose
all temporary settings, such as label formats, and you must reload them before you resume
printing.
