Step 3 : By using the [UP] or [DOWN] key select an appropriate value.
Step 4 : Press the [ENTER] key to confirm.
Notes
To cancel the changes of the parameter, press the [CANCEL] key. The display will show the previous
value for the parameter.
When you press the [EXIT] key the changed value will be ignored and you go back to the previous menu.
Notes
Please note that the use of the PRE-FEED LENGTH should not be regarded as a loss of time. If the shuffle
movement is executed without difficulty, the user can be convinced that the sign to be cut will be executed
with very little risk of media tracking problems. As such, it will result in a time-saving operation, preventing
that the user will have to re-cut a very complex design because of bad media alignment.
Notes
Please note that the cutting range is not limited by the Pre-Feed Length which you have set. In case a
design which exceeds the shuffle length is sent to the cutting plotter, the cutter will react as follows:
The first vector, which exceeds the limit, will be cut using reduced speed for the distance exceeding the
limit.
An additional 20 cm (8 inch) of media will be pulled off the roll in order to eliminate any possible snagging at
the roll.
After the additional (20 cm) pre-feed the cutter will continue at the requested speed until the new limit is
exceeded.
However, this should not be a reason for you not to change the page length at all, as by omitting to change
it; you will be inhibited to check the full vinyl transport before the job is launched
