1-27 KNIFE PRESSURE TEST PATTERN
Peel out the rectangle and inspect the media backing.
The knife depth is set correctly when the test pattern cuts completely through the vinyl. and
the blade tip visibly scratched the front side of the media backing when the vinyl is removed.
The blade should never cut in the backing but should only slightly scratch the silicon coating
and first few fibers of the backing material. Because the knife pressure setting depends on the
thickness and type of the media, adjusting the knife pressure will require some practice. In
general, the knife depth must be increased when using thicker types of vinyl and decreased
when using thinner types of vinyl.
After setting the cutting depth and/or the
knife pressure, perform a
thorough visual check of the knife blade, protruding from the knife holder and test
the cutting results on a scrap of vinyl media.
Do not operate the cutter if the knife blade cuts through the media
backing, as this will seriously damage the cutter's rubber cutting strip and the
