Cut Mode Normal/
HighSpd/
Quality
Sets the cutting quality.
• Normal: Normally, use this setting.
• HighSpd: This cuts media in a short period of time. This is not
suitable for use with heavy media.
• Quality: This puts priority on the cutting quality, and limits the
cutting speed to 20 cm/s. Select "Quality" when cutting the
following data.
– Text not larger than 10 mm
– Data with many acute angles
– Intricate data (However, cut lines may be jagged depending on the
data. If this occurs, change the setting to "HighSpd" to make cut
lines smoother.)
Copy - Cut the data stored in the receive buffer of the machine by the
specified number. "Copying the Last Data"(P. 176)
No. Copies 1 to 999 Enter the number of copies.
Interval 0 to 30 mm Select the cut data interval.
Tool Change - Select this when replacing tools. "Installing Cutting Tools"(P. 96)
Setup Sub Menu - Useful functions when cutting.
Division Cut - Allows data larger than the sheet width to be divided before cutting.
Division Cut OFF/X/Y Sets the direction for division cutting.
• Y: Carriage scan direction
• X: Media feed direction. Helps reduce offsets due to media that
meanders. Division cutting is performed if the division cut + cross
cut is exceeded.
Division Cut 50 to 500 cm Division cutting is performed if this setting is exceeded.
Cross Cut 0 to 50 mm Set the length for overlap cutting.
Frame Cut OFF/ON Sets whether or not to automatically cut a frame to match the cut
data.
Mark Cut OFF/ON Sets whether or not to add marks for use as guides when pasting
together division-cut media.
Up Speed - Set the movement speed of the media and carriage while the tool is
up.
Up Speed X AUTO/5 to 30
cm/s
Sets the media feed speed.
Setting a slower speed can reduce media offsets.
Up Speed Y AUTO/5 to 30 Sets the carriage scan speed.
Dummy cut ON/OFF Cuts the media to make the cutting blade face a certain direction
after media detection or tool changes. (Performs a dummy cut in
front of the pinch rollers which are closest to both ends of the cutter
unit.)
If you wish to avoid damage to the media or cut cut-out characters,
set this to OFF. Perform test cutting to adjust the direction of the
cutting blade. "Test Cutting"(P. 106)
