O CHANGE THE POUNCE OFFSET
• Press the F4 key to change OFFSET. The blinking cursor indicates that you can
change its setting.
• Press the UP or DOWN ARROW key to raise or lower the numeric value from 1
to 99.
• If all of the parameters are set press the ENTER key to register your setting.
NOTE: For the pounce condition, the cutter offset refers to the spacing between holes
in mm units.
Light Pointer
Conditions
The light pointer, embedded in the pen carriage, provides a means to point out
certain positions on the media which are necessary to perform functions such as
AXIS ALIGNMENT and AREA. The light pointer automatically activates when it is
needed.
Since the light pointer is offset from the pen, it immediatley moves to the pen’s
current location as soon as it is activated. The position of the light pointer there-
fore, represents the position of the pen.
The light pointer can also be used to check the cutter path before cutting the
contour of pre-printed images of labels and stickers.
How to Point the
Target
The light pointer is projected on the media as a small red circle. The position of
the light pointer is easily visible even though it is placed on a large target. The tar-
get, usually printed on the media as crossed lines, should be positioned such that
it is centered over the circle projected by the light pointer, as shown below.
