Ensuring print to cut registration with paneled jobs

Trap extends the printed area of a design beyond the cutline of a panel to ensure that there is no
unprinted vinyl at the edge of the design after cutting. Traps are automatically added with
printed panels. Trap width can be adjusted from 0.05 to 1.0 inches (1.27 mm to 25.4 mm).
Printed panels processed with traps, but without overlaps, are butt registered when assembling
the job. (The edge of a panel meets the edge of another panel without any overlapping of vinyl.)
Assemble printed panels that have traps and overlaps by overlapping the panels the width of
the overlap.
