Manual alignment method

Single frame alignment method

This is a manually alignment system, with a barcode printed on the sign. This method should
be used in combination with Mutoh's CutServer.
This method can be used in case the bounding box cannot be read by the cutter. In this case,
user intervention is necessary. This means the user needs to fill in the barcode number, how
the print job is loaded in the cutter and if a sheet off action is necessary once the job is done.
Once all these parameters are set, you need to jog the knife tip to some predetermined
coordinates. As soon as the cutter knows these coordinates, the cutting procedure starts
(make sure you've enabled auto-sheet-off in EasySIGN for each contour-sign).
We do not recommend this method over 2 m job length, although there is no real limit to the
length that can be used.

the Print&Cut workflow.

Multi frame alignment method

Is the same as the single frame alignment method but for multi frame jobs.
This method should be used in combination with Mutoh's CutServer. With this method, it is
possible to make signs of 10m or longer.
Once you have set all parameters and positioned the knife tip over the predetermined
coordinates, the Kona / Kona apparel will start and cut segment per segment. This method
gives you more accuracy than the previous method. We do not recommend this method for
signs smaller than 1,5m.
Refer to the Kona / Kona apparel application guide for all details about Mutoh's
CutServer and the Print&Cut workflow.

Manual alignment method

The Mutoh Manual Alignment Method is a non-automatic method.
Its advantage is that the cropmark system is very small (for small sized jobs), and that this
method can be used in case of vinyl that do not reflect the EPOS laser light (meaning, the
laser would not be capable of measuring the cropmarks automatically).

The user has to use the jog keys on the keyboard to measure each cross manually before
contour cutting can start.
