Scanning a Background Image
In this example, we will use material with a cutout in
its upper-left corner as a background image.
Memo
•
The background scanning function is also
useful when cutting out patterns from material
with a design on it. By arranging the patterns on
the screen in the desired patterned area of the
material, cutouts with a specific design can be
created.
•
This function cannot be used when an optional
scanning mat is used.
•
Depending on the machine model, the sizes of
mats that can be used will differ. Check the
“Maximum Scanning Area” under “Machine
Information” of the settings screen. For details,
refer to “Settings Screen” on page 10.
