DISTANCE ADJUST - Adjusting the Length of Line Seg-
ments
The actual length of cut line segments may vary according to the thickness of
the media being used. In this case, use the DISTANCE ADJUST function to cor-
rect the distance.
Each of the DISTANCE ADJUST settings represents a percentage. For example,
if the cutting length is 2000mm and the DISTANCE ADJUST setting is 0.5% then
the cutting length would be 2001mm.
