Crop Marks - Roland ColorCamm PC-12 User Manual

Part 5 Many Kinds of Printing and Settings

Crop marks

There is a feature that lets you perform alignment when remove media printed with the PC-12, then reload the media and carry out cutting.
You can carry this out no matter whether [Media Type] is set to [Media for Resin] or to [Media for Wax].
This prints crop marks when you first perform printing, and then when you next perform cutting, it detects these crop marks and automatically
performs alignment before cutting.
This is useful at times such as when you laminate printed media before performing cutting.
- You cannot specify this when [Printing & Cutting] is selected.
- When you have selected [Printing], selecting the [Crop Marks] check box causes crop marks to be drawn. The crop
marks are printed on each page outside the printing size. Also, crop marks are printed in black, so be sure to install
a compatible black ink-ribbon cartridge.
- When you have selected [Cutting], selecting the [Crop Marks] check box causes crop marks to be detected and
alignment to be performed before cutting each page.
To Laminate the Media After Printing and Then Perform Cutting
NOTICE Crop marks are printed in black, so be sure to install a compatible black ink-ribbon cartridge.
The printing size changes when crop marks are printed. For more information, go to "4.2 Output from a Compatible
Program" and refer to "About the Media Size and Printing Size."
1 At the [Roland PC-12] dialog box, make settings like the
ones below, then carry out printing.
- In the [Output Data] field, choose [Printing], then select
the [Crop Marks] check box.
- In order to reload media that has been printed, there
must be 30 mm (1-3/16 in.) or more from where
printing ends and the rear edge of the media (the
location where the media was cut off). The [Crop
Marks] check box is interlocked with [Page Spacing],
and selecting [Crop Marks] make the [Page Spacing]
setting change to 30 mm (1-3/16 in.) .
To cut off the media, go to the [Media Handling] field
and select [Cut Media After Printing].
The crop marks are printed after the data is printed. The
crop marks are printed on each page outside the printing
size.
When you are performing lamination, go to the driver settings and set [Media Size] to the same setting for printing
and for cutting.
