■ Enabling/Disabling PEN UP MOVE
This function sets whether the pen will travel to each point specified or only from the initially specified point
to the last specified point when consecutive commands are received specifying pen movement while it is
raised.
When ON is selected, the pen travels consecutively to each coordinate specified by the data received.
When OFF is selected, the pen travels directly from the initially specified point to the last specified point.
(The default setting is OFF.)
■ Enabling/Disabling the Media Sensors
This function sets the media sensors that detect the size of the medium in the feed direction.
When ON is selected, the feed-direction media sensors are enabled.
When OFF is selected, the feed-direction media sensors are disabled.
(The default setting is ON.)
■ Enabling/Disabling the Home Sensors
This function sets the home sensors that detect the width of the medium.
When ON is selected, the home sensors are enabled.
When OFF is selected, the home sensors are disabled.
(The default setting is ON.)
■ Setting the PARALLEL I/F Mode
Parallel (Centronics-compatible) interfaces have various timing methods for their signal lines. If the signal
timings do not match, data cannot be received accurately via the Centronics-compatible parallel interface.
This function allows the timing of the Centronics-compatible parallel interface to be changed by selecting
one of four different modes (1 through 4).
(The default setting is 1.)
■ Circle-Command Resolution Setting (when the COMMAND setting is HP-GL)
This function sets whether the resolution is automatically set or fixed at a constant 5 degrees when a cut-
ting-plotter circle command is output while the COMMAND setting is HP-GL.
(The default setting is Auto.)
■ Enabling/Disabling Blade Wear Detection
When ON is selected, the blade wear-detection setting is enabled and the blade wear-detection setting
menu is displayed in the PAUSE menu.
When OFF is selected, the blade wear-detection setting is disabled, and the blade wear-detection setting
menu is removed from the PAUSE menu and is not displayed. For details on wear detection, refer to “4.17
Cutter-Blade Wear Detection.”
(The default setting is OFF.)
If the media or home sensors have been disabled (set to OFF), be sure to specify the
cutting/plotting area (see “Setting the Cutting/Plotting Area”). If the cutting/plotting area
is not specified, the cutting mat may be damaged.
