Installing Tools
This machine allows you to use the following tools:
Cutter :
This tool is selected when an image printed on a media
is cut or when letters are cut with a cutting media.
Pen (water-based ballpoint pen) :
This tool is used to perform “test printing” for checking
how images or letters are cut actually.
When a Cutter Is Used
How to install a cutter
1
Remove the cap located at the edge by
rotating it, and replace the cutter with a
new one using tweezers or the like.
2
Turn the adjusting knob to adjust the
protruding amount of the cutter.
• arrow to protrude the cutter blade.
( 0.5 mm per revolution)
Adjusting the protrusion of the cutter
blade
Adjust the cutter blade according to the types of the cutters and
the sheet for use.
After adjusting the protrusion of the cutter blade, set the cutting
conditions and conduct test cutting to check the cutting quality.
For the cutter supplied with unit, the protruding amount of the
blade can be adjusted with the cuttermounted in the pen
carriage.
1
Turn the adjusting knob to adjust the
protruding amount of the cutter blade.
• arrow to protrude the cutter blade.
( 0.5 mm per revolution)
Protruding amount of the cutter blade
• Do not touch the cutter with your fingers.
The sharp blade edge of the cutter may cause you
to get injured.
• Do not shake the tool after having set the
cutter.
Otherwise, the blade edge may pop out, causing
you to get injured.
• Store the cutter blade in a place that is out of the
reach of children. In addition, dispose of used
cutter blades according to regional laws and
regulations.
• Take care not to protrude the blade too much. If
the cutter is used with its blade excessively
protruded, the cutter can cut out the base paper,
thus damaging the main unit.
• See the appendix for the blade adjustment of the
cutters other than the auxiliary products.
( P.5-19)
Amount of cutting=
For reference :
the protruding amount of the cutter blade = 0.2 to 0.5mm
(Replace the blade when it is blunt.)
• Adjust the blade pressure so that the cutter may
leave a little bit of cutter track on the sheet.
• In case the sheet thickness is thinner than the film
thickness, which may not provide correct cutting
quality, change the protruding amount of the blade
and you may get a better result.
