3. OPERATIONS
• Initial Blade Tip Position Setting (INITIAL BLADE CONTROL POSITION)
The cutter blade is placed on the medium to orient it after the power is turned on or the cutter-pen
conditions are set. This is referred to as “initializing” the cutter blade.
This function sets the “Initial Blade Tip Position” for this operation.
When 2 mm BELOW is selected, initial blade control is performed at a position 2 mm below the cutting
start position.
When OUTSIDE is selected, initial blade control is performed outside of the effective cutting/plotting
area.
• Setting the Display Length Unit (LENGTH UNIT)
This function enables you to set the unit for coordinates appearing on the display panel to either
millimeter or inch units.
• Enabling/Disabling Pen Up Move (PEN UP MOVE)
This function sets whether the pen will travel to each point specified or only from the initially specified
point to the last specified point when consecutive commands are received specifying pen movement
while it is raised.
When ENABLED is selected, the pen travels consecutively to each coordinate specified by the data
received.
When DISABLED is selected, the pen travels directly from the initially specified point to the last specified
point.
• Enabling/Disabling the Media Sensors (MEDIA SENSOR)
This function enables or disables the media sensors that detect the size of the medium in the feed
direction.
When ENABLED is selected, the feed-direction media sensors are enabled.
When DISABLED is selected, the feed-direction media sensors are disabled.
• Enabling/Disabling the Pinch Roller Sensors (PINCH ROLLER SENSOR)
This function enables or disables the pinch roller sensors that detect the width of the medium.
When ENABLED is selected, the pinch roller sensors are enabled.
When DISABLED is selected, the pinch roller sensors are disabled.
• Since the pinch roller sensors are also used for the cross-cutting operation, cross-
cutting cannot be performed if DISABLED is selected.
• Circle-Command Resolution Setting (CIRCLE RESOLUTION)
Note: This function can only be specified when the COMMAND setting is HP-GL™.
This function sets whether the resolution is automatically set or fixed at a constant 5 degrees when a
plotter circle command is output while the COMMAND setting is HP-GL™.
• Cross-cut Force Setting (CROSS CUT PRESSURE)
This function sets the cutting force for the cross-cut operation.
The default value is 30, but the setting should be changed to suit the media type.
Thin media:
Decrease the value.
Thick media:
Increase the value.
