Confirm the results of the cutting test
Confirm the cutting test results, and adjust to optimal setting. Repeat cutting test and adjustment until optimal cut is
achieved.
Adjustment of Offset
Check the corners of the triangles and rectangles. See "Setting the Tool Condition" and adjust the offset value if the
corner is not cut or if it is cut too much.
How to check offset
Check if the offset value is set correctly by following.
Not enough adjustment value. Increase the offset value.
Optimal offset value.
Too much adjustment value. Decrease the offset value.
Supplement
Adjustment for Half Cutting
Peel off the triangle area, and adjust so it cuts slightly into the backing sheet.
If the backing sheet has been cut through, either the FORCE setting is too high or the cutter-blade tip is extended
too far. If the backing sheet shows only a few traces of the cutter blade, either the FORCE setting is too low or the
cutter blade tip is not sufficiently extended.
See "Adjusting the Blade Length" and "Setting the Force" and adjust the settings.
Supplement
Adjustment for cutting out
Adjust so the media is completely cut out.
If the media is not completely cut, either the FORCE setting is too low or the cutter blade tip is not sufficiently
extended.
See "Adjusting the Blade Length" and "Setting the Force" and adjust the settings.
Adjustment when using plotting pen
Adjust the FORCE so there will be no faint lines. To prolong the pen life, set the FORCE to the lowest setting without
any faint lines. See "Setting the Force" or setting the FORCE.
