Setting of the Initial Down Force The initial down-force setting is effective when tangential mode is selected. tangential mode is generally used for the cutting of thick media. With thick ﬁlm, additional time is required for the cutter blade to penetrate the media fully, even when the necessary cutting force is applied. The cutting operation starts before the cutter blade has fully penetrated the media, causing uncut sections to be left.
