Page 2 1OFF SENSOR OFFSET ADJUST Per Graphtec we need to begin using “Sensor Offset Adjust” rather than “Axis Origin Offset.” Both methods result in shifting the cut lines but, the Sensor Offset Adjust will NOT move the ORIGIN point. REMEMBER: Increase the X and Y values shift the cut lines to the upper left (if you are standing in front of the cutter.) Y = (right to left, positive values shift left) X = (down to up, positive values shift cut lines up)
