pausing printer
Hi
Does anyone know of a simple way to get the sp540v to pause and wait for a keystroke or something similar after printing but before cutting? Without going through the whole printing cutting marks rigmarole.
The reason I ask is this.
I have a take-up mechanism, but if I am going to cut after printing, it will jam when it tries to go back through the versacamm.
Usually if the job is less than about 2.5 meters I let it sit on the ground. If its more then I use the marks.
(Maybe Im just lazy) but both methods have obvious drawbacks.
Thanks,Simon.

not sure you can do anything about it mate.
If I’m printing then cutting, and its a long print, I go thru the two steps as its the only way I can see that it will work without having to waste time sitting there so you can press the pause button, so it doesn’t jam, as you say.

Hi
you could set up a dry time which would give time to unwind your print.in Versaworks goto SETTINGS>PRINTER CONTROL & you will see how to set a DRY time
