HP Z3100 and canvas

[Mike Sellers]

Can the z3100 cut canvas or should I use scissors?

Scissors. The cutter may be able to cut some canvases, but it would dull fast and a failure while cutting may cause some serious issues with the carriage/belt/encoder-strip.

I manually roll out the paper and use a mat knife along the front edge of the printer.

Yep, roll it out, trim with scissors. The cutter won't be any good with canvas

Simple to use the front edge as a guide. Tough part is getting the cut in the canvas started, if the knife isn't extreemly sharp.

Scissors. I accidentally turned on the cutter with canvas on my Z3200 and it jammed the cutter. Fortunately, I was able to un jam it with  no harm to the machine.  But, I never want to go through that again.
