Hi owners!

This article will show you how to enable the 2-inch cut option on your printer, to print two 2x6 strips.

You can enable the 2-inch cut option for your printer, as is; but you can also create a virtual copy of your printer, and enable the 2-inch cut to it. The latter will allow you to have two separate printer settings, while using the same printer.
