T1100 Wide Format cutter problem
Just replaced the carriage belt in a T1100, and now the cutter is not working correctly. It does not cut cleanly, it "pushes" up against the paper, and buckles it instead of cutting through it. I've tried a new cutter assy, same problem. I've tried different widths of paper, no luck. Opened a new roll, nothing. I've check and re-checked that the cutter is installed correctly. It is. There's really only one way for it to be installed, and according to the diagram in the parts box, it IS installed correctly. Seems like the paper is not being held down so the cutter can cut. Any ideas??? Thanks..... Jeff M.

Re: T1100 Wide Format cutter problem
Can't really remember if that one works like a 5500. If it does, it hits a lever to drop it into position. Have you removed the left side cover and move the carriage manually back and forth to see if it actuates correctly.

Yes, I agree with Tech rule 27....... I think I did it, but I can't see why. By the way, there seems to be a lot of lateral play in the carriage. It prints fine, but the front moves up and down about 1/2". Are there any spacers or something similar at the top of the carriage that might be missing or broken? Thanks...... Jeff M.Comment

Re: T1100 Wide Format cutter problem
Sounds identical to 5500, never had cutter issue so not sure. I have a couple I am working on and will take a look when I next see one of them. Best tip I can give you is call Liberty Parts Team and when you get the operator, ask for eddie, he is great.
