software, refer to the software manual for instructions for adding the
plotter in that software.
Loading material
The ODYSSEY XP cuts and plots a wide variety of vinyl film, masks, and
papers. Always use Gerber-authorized materials for highest quality.
CAUTION: Do not load the material with a tool installed in the tool
holder. Loading material into the plotter with the tool installed can
result in damage to the blade or the material.
CAUTION: Check the material edge for irregularities that could cause
tracking problems. If the material has an irregularity bigger than a
sprocket hole on punched material, turn skew off. (See page 12.)
Tip: To prevent material edge irregularities, always store material horizontally
or vertically on the left edge.
Material loading consists of three steps:
♦
mounting the roll on the plotter
♦
loading the material into the plotter
♦
verifying the material alignment
In addition, you may need to:
♦
cut clear material
♦
turn off skew control
♦
check and measure the available cutting area
