Changing the cutting depth
If the cutter does not properly cut tube or tape label, try changing the cutting depth. The cutting depth for half cuts and for full cuts can be adjusted as described below. In addition, these adjustments can be made separately for each type of print media.
If half cuts are made so deeply that they completely cut through the tube, adjust cutting to a shallower depth. Note that a deeper cutting depth will cause the cutter and the cutter receiver to wear out more quickly.

What to do if the cutter still does not cut well (Force full cut)
If the cutter will not cut well no matter how much you adjust the cutting depth, try using Force full cut. When force full cut is performed, the cutter cuts to the deepest depth possible. If the cutter still does not cut even when using force full cut, the cutter needs to be replaced.
