Loading the graphic into the cutter
Load the printout into the cutter as described in section 1.6. Make sure the mark,
indicating the origin, is situated at the bottom right corner of the cutter.
The OPOS parameters are variables that define the distance, size, and number of
marks. These parameters are needed so the cutter can align the cut lines to the printed
job. Most cutting software sets these parameters automatically and even starts the
