How to manually activate the cutter without getting the initial form feed

[MrAllen]

How do I manually cut the paper without the extra form feed when a job is finished printing?  When I manually perform a "form feed and cut" via the front panel, the printer feeds an extra 1/2 inch or so of material before cutting, resulting in a final paper that is bigger than what was specified in the print job.  My current solution is to use the arrow keys after pressing "form feed and cut" and trying to guess when the paper is in the right place, resulting in prints that are never exactly the right size.   I don't want to use automatic cut.  Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting with HP Support Forum.

Already you are using best way, but now you required another solution.

Ok, you may up the blue liver and out the paper from printer manualy cut the paper as your choosen wise. Then put the paper again in right place and then down the blue liver.

Otherwise I don't have any alternate options.

I hope that answers will support to concern adequately. Let me know! Good luck
