Reference Pen Conditions for Plotting Pens
Pen type FORCE SPEED QUALITY
Water based fiber-tip pen 10 to 12 30 2
To preserve the pen’s longevity, set the FORCE to the lowest possible setting that permits you to obtain
the desired plotted results. Set the SPEED after checking the plotted results for the absence of faint
lines and other problems.
NOTE : • If the SPEED and QUALITY are set to high values, the cut/plotted results have a
coarser finish but the overall cutting/plotting time is shortened.
• If the SPEED and QUALITY settings are set to low values, the cut/plotted results
have a finer finish but the overall cutting/plotting time is longer.
4.4.1 Selecting a Set of Cutting Conditions
Four different sets of user-defined cutting conditions can be registered in the plotter’s memory as COND
Nos. 1 through 4. To specify a set of cutting conditions, you must first select the destination COND No. By
selecting a different COND No., you can easily switch between pre-defined cutting conditions for four types
of media.
Step 1
Each time you press the
key at the menu below, the selected set of cutting conditions is sequentially
changed from COND1 through COND4. Pressing the

key while COND4 is selected switches
the setting back to COND1.

Step 2
The currently selected blade type, CUTTER OFFSET, and FORCE settings appear. When the blade
type setting is PEN, the CUTTER OFFSET setting does not appear. When the blade type setting is
OTHER, an asterisk symbol (∗) appears in place of the blade type.
The blade type setting appears The blade’s CUTTER OFFSET
here as 09U, 15U, PEN, or ∗ setting appears here.
(the asterisk represents the No setting is displayed when
OTHER setting). the blade type setting is PEN.
COND1 PEN 12
The cutting FORCE setting appears here.
