Chapter 4 Cutting Data with Register Marks
105
Media and Register Mark Color
We recommend using white media and black register marks. The machine may fail to detect register marks
in other colors.
Blurred Register Marks
Ensure that printed register marks are not blurred. If the register marks are blurred, the mark origins may be
incorrectly identified, or the machine may fail to detect the register marks.
Register Mark Size
The recommended register mark size (A) is within the range of A4 size (210 mm × 297 mm) to A3 size (297
mm × 420 mm). If the dimensions exceed A3, the machine may fail to detect register marks due to media
feeding problems (e.g., media meandering).
Standards for Register Mark Length and Line Width
