3 – 7
Select the setting area (condition number) to be set, and move the symbol to the position shown below
using the or key.
Press the or key to select “09U,” “15U,” “15B,” or “PEN.” Once set, press the (ENTER) key. If
other conditions are to be set, press the or key to move the symbol to the parameter to be set.
■ Setting OFFSET
This setting adjusts the offset of the cutter blade to suit the blade type used. The tip of the blade mounted
in the cutter-pen plunger is not positioned at the center of the pen, so correction is required. This correction
is referred to as the OFFSET setting. The cutting plotter has been preset with OFFSET values for each cut-
ter-blade type. Selecting “09U,” “15U,” or “15B” for the PEN TYPE setting also sets the appropriate OFF-
SET, allowing fine adjustment within the range of ±5. When the “PEN” setting is selected, the OFFSET
cannot be set.
Press the (COND.) key in READY mode to display the cutter-pen conditions.
Select the setting area (condition number) to be set, and move the symbol to the position shown below

Press the or key to select the value to be changed in the range of “-5” to “+5.” Once set, press the
(ENTER) key. If other conditions are to be set, press the or key to move the symbol to the
parameter to be set.
■ Setting FORCE
Sets the pressure applied by the cutter pen during cutting. Set the FORCE value based on the guidelines
in the table entitled “Optimal Cutting Conditions for Each Media Type” on page 3-5.
Press the (COND.) key in READY mode to display the cutter-pen conditions.
Select the setting area (condition number) to be set, and move the symbol to the position shown below
