About Dummy Cutting
This is performed after detecting the media or when
changing the tool type in front of the pinch roller which is
near the both ends from the position of the cutter unit is
placed presently.
Set the dummy cutting function to OFF when you do not
want to damage the media in cutting cut-out characters.
About Cutter Blade Corrected
Pressure Offset
Some part of a media is left uncut because the pressure
applied when the cutter blade touches the media is weak.
When an optional eccentric blade is used, some part of a
media to be cut with the blade's angle being 120 degrees
or less may be left uncut.
This is because the corners are cut with a low pressure
(about 5 g) automatically applied so that the media does
not turn up. Some part of a media may be left uncut
because the blade edge does not rotate
smoothly in its moving direction with the cutting pressure
being low. In such a case, configure the setting for the
pressure to be increased when the corners are cut.

Maintenance Function
This section gathers together the functions for checking/
adjusting the cutting accuracy when cutting does not go
normally.
Maintenance of Mark Sensor
If cutting does not go normally, check the items below.?
In registration mark sensor maintenance, you can carry
out maintenance of the following items.
• When “PEN” is selected for the tool condition, the
dummy cutting cannot be set.
• The default of the dummy cutting function is
ON.When you have set the dummy cutting
function to OFF, perform test cutting ( P.2-25)
to adjust the cutter blade orientation before
cutting.
Function name Outline
MARK sensor
(P.4-14)
Adjusting the registration mark sensor.
SAMPLE CUT
(P.4-17)
In case that normal data cutting cannot be
performed etc., perform cutting with the
sample stored in this plotter to find out the
cause of cutting error.
AUTO CUT
(P.4-17)
You can cut a medium into multiple pieces
with a certain length.
ORIGIN OFFSET
(P.4-18)
Adjust the misalignment between the print
origin and the cutting origin.
Item Outline
SENSOR CHECK
(P.4-15)
checking the sensor for the register
mark detection.
SENSOR OFFSET
(P.4-16)
the offset value of the cutter and the
mark sensor can be adjusted.
POINTER OFFSET
(P.4-16)
If the cutter unit fails to recognize any
register mark properly, the possible
cause is an error in the positional
relationship between the mark sensor
and the light pointer. In this case,
correct the position of the light pointer.
