If Auto Cut is turned ON in the printer driver, however, auto cutting will be performed, so check that the auto cutter is turned OFF before printing. z If you are using cut sheets, the media take-up unit cannot be used. z With some print media, the hue of some colors may change slightly when the ink on the surface of the media has dried completely. Make sure the ink is dry before performing the final coloring check or handling the printed matter. z If you are printing large quantities of ink onto thin, weak paper such as thin coated paper, etc., spooling may not operate correctly in humid environments. In such cases, improve the operating environment, or use the ink drying time function to make sure the ink is dry before the paper is spooled. z Fabric banner and synthetic paper may not spool correctly in humid environments.
