Cutter Assembly

With the optional cutter assembly installed, labels or endless media may be

cut off immediately after being printed.

The cutter is controlled and powered by the peripheral port of the Apollo.

The firmware of the printer allows a backfeed of the label stock so that it is

always possible to print the last label in its entirety before it is cut off.

The cutter assembly is delivered in a separate package.

Please keep the original packaging in case the cutter must be returned !

Rewind Guide Plate

The optional rewind guide plate for printers with internal rewinder allows you to

rewind small print jobs inside the printer. The maximum rewind diameter depends

on the remaining size of the media supply roll.

It is limited by the possible contact of both, the rewind roll and supply roll.
