Epson 9600 Manuel D’Utilisation

If you notice that your paper isn’t cut cleanly, the cutter blade may need to 
be replaced. If you use the blade to cut heavy stock or non-EPSON media, 
you may need to replace it more often (see page 76 for paper types you 
shouldn’t attempt to cut with the built-in cutter). 

You can check the status of your cutter by printing the status check sheet or 
viewing its status on the control panel (see page 131). When you need a new 
cutter blade, contact EPSON and request part number C12C815241. 

Follow these steps to replace the blade: 

1. Make sure that the printer is on and the front cover is closed.
