Reloading The Media And Performing Cutting; Printing Area - Roland SolJet PROII SC-540 User Manual

2-7 Reloading the Media and Performing Cutting

When you are performing printing, then performing lamination or the like, reloading the media, and performing cutting,
using the alignment function makes it possible to align the printing and cutting positions.
Alignment of the printing and cutting positions uses crop marks. Printing with crop marks added enables automatic
detection of the crop marks during cutting, thereby making alignment possible.

Printing Area

When you print with crop marks, the area that you can print or cut is reduced by an amount corresponding to the size of
the crop marks.
You can easily check the actual size of the area where output is possible without crop marks. While the display shows the
area where output is possible, press and hold the [ENTER] key. The actual size where output is possible is displayed until
you release the key.

Printing or cutting area
without crop marks
When you're printing with crop marks, attempting printing that exceeds
the size of the area where output is possible or that conversely is too
small (40 mm (1-5/8 in.) [scanning direction] X 15 mm (5/8 in.) [feed
direction]) results in the message shown in the figure, and operation
pauses.
To quit printing, stop sending data from the computer and press the
[SETUP] key. Pressing the [ENTER] key starts printing, but the portion
that exceeds the size where output is possible is truncated and crop marks
are not printed.
