The PEN UP/DOWN function allows you to raise or lower the pen from the con-
trol panel.
WARNING: While using this function, keep your hands out of the vicinity of the pen
holder (especially the pen).
• Press the MENU key to select MENU mode.
• Press the NEXT key.
• Press the F2 key to toggle between PEN UP and PEN DOWN. The Pen UP/
DOWN message does not change, but the pen will move up or down.
• Press the MENU key to cancel MENU mode.
The BUFFER CLEAR function is used to clear the plotter's receive buffer of all
data that has been sent from the computer.
WARNING: Do not execute the BUFFER CLEAR function until the computer has com-
pleted data output. If you clear the buffer while the computer is still send-
ing data to the plotter, the data received up to the time that MENU mode
was selected is cleared, but the computer resumes sending subsequent
data which remains in its buffer. At such time, the pen carriage may sud-
denly start moving so be sure to keep your hands, face and other obsta-
cles out of the vicinity of the cutting mat and media.
• Press the MENU key to select MENU mode.
• Press the NEXT key.
• Press the F3 key to select BUFFER CLEAR
The NOTE message then prompts you to stop sending data from the computer
before clearing the buffer. If you wish to quit the current job, cancel the current
plotting on the application software.
