HP Designjet T790 and T1300 ePrinter Series - Feed and cut the paper

If you go to the front panel and press , then , then Paper > Form feed and cut, the printer advances the paper and makes a straight cut across the front edge. There are several possible reasons why you might want to do this.

• To trim the leading edge of the paper if it is damaged or not straight.
• To feed and cut the paper when the automatic cutter has been disabled.
• To cancel the waiting time and print the available pages immediately, if the printer is waiting to nest more pages (T1300 series only).

note:

The printheads are serviced after each print, and the paper cannot be cut until the process completes, so you may notice a delay.

  caution:

Remove the cut piece from the output tray. If strips or short prints are left in the output tray the printer could jam.

note:

Photo and coated paper requires careful handling, see The print is scuffed or scratchedThe print is scuffed or scratched.
