Adjusting the Cut Setting
Perform a cutting test before adjusting the cut setting. Adjust the cutting condition after checking the
cutting test result. You can change the blade force, cutting speed, and the offset of the blade tip from the
printer driver's [Print Setting] window (or CutStudio/VersaWorks).

Adjusting the Cutting-in Amount
When you want to perform accurate and fine adjustment of the cutting-in amount, such as when cutting
material with thin carrier paper, you can obtain good results by adjusting the amount of blade extension.
Turn the cap portion of the blade holder to adjust the amount of blade extension.
The amount of blade extension ( ) is 0 mm ( ) at minimum and 2.5 mm (98.42 mil) ( ) at maximum. An
adjustment of 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) can be made by rotating the cap one full turn.
Set the amount of blade extension ( ) to an amount that is the sum of the thickness of the material por-
tion ( ) and half ( ) the thickness of the carrier paper ( ).
MEMO
If you are cutting perforated lines in material without carrier paper, set the amount of blade extension ( ) so that
when the cutter pierces the material ( ), the blade extends slightly. Pushing the blade out too far will damage the
blade and blade protector and hasten their deterioration, so exercise caution.
