Cutter Replacement
The animation sequence shows the complete procedure
for the replacement of the paper cutter in your printer.
Prerequisites
Before attempting to replace the cutter you must contact
your local HP Customer Care
center to:
• Order the replacement cutter.
• Receive instructions on how to access the Front Panel
Service Menu.
Important Information
• The cutter unit is attached to the printer by a black cut-
ter holder that runs along the metal guide rail, and is
hooked onto the edge of the platen
at the front of the
printer.
• The cutting wheel is inside the cutter unit.
• Do not remove the cutter holder.
• When inserting the new cutter, with the cutter holder raised to about 45 degrees, partially insert the cutter so it rests
in the cutter holder, but do NOT clip it in at this stage.
CAUTION: Be very careful when replacing the cutter because you can easily break the cutter holder if you apply
too much force.
