OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Open the front cover.
Insert paper/cardstock into the rear feed tray (1st cut). Align the paper/cardstock with the roller blades by adjusting the paper guides on both sides. Turn the manual handle to trim the paper/cardstock into 2 strips.
Insert one strip into the front feed tray (2nd cut). Again, align the strip with the roller blades by adjusting the paper guides on both sides. Be sure to slit the strip one at a time. Turn the manual handle to get finished cards. Repeat this step for other strips to create your business cards.

Frequently asked questions
What paper thickness can the CardMac cut?
Use paper or cardstock up to 0.3 mm (12 mil) thick or 140 lb (300 gsm) (page 2).
Can I feed more than one sheet at once?
No. Feed only one sheet at a time, and slit strips one at a time (page 2).
What should I do if the CardMac does not work normally?
Contact your local reseller or service agent. There are no user-serviceable parts inside, and removing covers or modifying the machine voids the warranty (page 2).
