1) Position the right-hand edge of the material over the right-hand grit roller. Move the material from side to side until the left-hand edge of the material is positioned over one of the short grit rollers. Align the material with the guide lines so that it is loaded straight. Make sure the left and right margins are the same size 2) Position the left- and right-hand pinch rollers over the grit rollers. - Page 19 Incorrect Side view Top view Loaded sheet is crooked Rolled Material Rolled Material Material is slack When the prefeed check function is disabled (i.e., set to "DISABLE") Correct Side view Top view Make the material perpendicular to the CJ-70/60.

Page 22: Cutting Test
11 Cutting Test For optimum performance, it is necessary to set cutting conditions that match the material, giving consideration to the material's thick- ness and type of material. The CJ-70/60 has an internal "cutting test" to check the cutting conditions. This "cutting test" allows you to determine settings for the cutting speed, blade force and the amount of offset. -
Page 23: Downloading Printing/Cutting Data
For Materials with a Strong Adhesive Layer If you are using a material with a strong adhesive layer, the adhesive layer may adhere to itself immediately when cut. This means that even though the material has actually been cut, it may appear as if it has not been cut, and blade force may mistakenly be set too high. If a cutting test shows that the material peels easily and the blade traces on the carrier paper are optimal, then the material is being cut. -
Page 24: When Not In Use
14 When Not in Use... When not in use, leave the pinch rollers in the raised state. The pinch rollers may be deformed if allowed to remain in the lowered state. After detaching the blade holder from the tool carriage, do not tighten the tool setscrew. Leave this screw loose. Tightening the screw makes the hole for inserting the holder to progressively smaller, which on turn makes it difficult to install the blade holder. -
Page 25: When Not In Use For A Prolonged Period
When Not in Use for a Prolonged Period... Do not switch off the main power with the ink head in an uncapped state (i.e., while the printing carriage is on the platen). If you leave the printing carriage uncapped for a long time, doing so may result in clogging of the ink head, making it unusable. -

Page 28: Align The Printing And Cutting Positions
Align the Printing and Cutting Positions Materials expand and contract in response to absorbed ink and atmospheric humidity. The degree of size change depends on the material, backing material, and ambient temperature and humidity. In general, materials which absorb moisture easily expand and contract more easily. There is very little effect when only cutting or printing is used, but if printing is followed by cutting, it is possible that the cutting line may be offset from the printing line. - Page 29 Without moving the cutting carriage, remove the Press the key to alignment tool and attach the blade holder. start cutting. 2 HEAD ADJUST Mechanical deviation caused by temperature is corrected, and the correction value stored to the CJ-70/60. If the ambient temperature variation is low, this correction setting should not have to be changed.
- Page 30 3 CALIBRATION If correction with "2 HEAD ADJUST" is done and there is still an offset between the printing and cutting positions, use the following correction method. Measure the sheet offset caused by expansion/contraction and store it in the CJ-70/60. Because different sheet materials have different offsets, either reset the value when using a different sheet material, or use "1 CROP MARK"...
