Important
• Starting the printer when it is connected via the USB cable to a Mac OS computer that is off may cause the com-
puter to start up at the same time. To prevent this, disconnect the USB cable before starting the printer. Connect-
ing the printer to the computer via a USB hub may solve this issue.
Turning the printer off
Important
• Never disconnect the printer's power supply or unplug it during a print job. This may damage the printer.

Method for Rolls.") ➔P.351

"Paper Sizes.") ➔P.326 (See "Types of Paper.") ➔P.326
• To wait until the ink dries after printing before cutting the roll, set Drying Time in the printer driver. (See
"Specifying the Ink Drying Time for Rolls.") ➔P.350
