    I have a KW-tri0 3947 that my company aquired in a merger. It was doing fine then it stopped cutting the last three pages of any stack of cardstock. Does anyone know of any places that repair a machine like this? I have searched the interwebs and can only find places out of the country...I am in Washington State.
    Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    J

    Most likely just needs someone who is mechanically inclined to put a wrench on it and make an adjustment.

    The knife comes down and cuts through the paper contacting the red cutting stick. Does the red cutting stick have a deep groove in it? The stick can be turned to a new spot so it cuts like new. Usually a couple screws to loosen and the stick pops out and can be rotated to a new spot. That should do it.

    There also should be an adjustment to have the knife go lower to make better contact with the stick. Each cutter is different.

    If you still have trouble, any print shop cutter technician should be able to help on site. Ask the local print shop who they use.
