It’s also inside a plastic safety enclosure, which will prevent injury. The adjustable paper guide will allow you to align materials for repetitive cutting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use a paper trimmer?

Paper cutters & trimmers not only have a proven track record for precise trimming but can also last a long time. They’re not, however, something you should handle lightly. Here are a couple things you should keep in mind while you’re using a paper cutter:

Test it out on a piece of scrap paper before you cut the material to make sure it’s set up correctly.
Never remove or adjust its safety features, because you could increase your risk of injury.

You may also have to deal with cheap paper that may become distorted or materials that weren’t stored correctly.

How do I make an accurate cut with a paper trimmer?

The best way to get an accurate cut with a paper trimmer is to test it out on a piece of scrap paper, so you can make sure the settings are correct. This will make sure you don’t have any inaccuracies when you’re ready to cut.

How long does a paper cutter blade last?

All blades, knives, and cutters will become dull after a while. And once that happens to paper trimmers, stack cutters, or guillotines, the quality of the work they produce will go down. It can be hard to tell if a drop in performance is because of a dull blade or some kind of mechanical issue. But if you notice that your paper cutter isn’t able to cut through as much as it used to, you most likely have a dull blade. Fortunately, the blades are simple to replace. You just have to remove the safety guard and swap it out.

What is the difference between a paper cutter and a paper trimmer?

Paper trimmers are sometimes called paper cutters, but each one is different in certain respects. A paper cutter uses a guillotine system for cutting the materials. You lift the arm and press it down to lower the blade through the paper, which is a good method for cutting large stacks of paper and thicker stocks. A paper trimmer uses a sliding mechanism, which is better for cutting single sheets or smaller stacks of paper.
