Setting The Cutting Test And The Blade Force - Roland VersaCamm VS-640 User Manual

Outputting
When you're performing cutting only using the roll media, never allow the media to hang
down from the rear of the machine. (or set the [PREFEED] menu to "ENABLE.")
This prevents a motor error or fall of the roll because the media is pulled with excessive force.
For the [PREFEED] menu, refer to  p. 114, "Preventing Pulling of the Media with Undue Force When Performing
Cutting Only."
2
Turn the media by hand to pull
out the necessary length from
the roll.
If the media is hanged down from the
rear of the machine, you can leave the
[PREFEED] function "DISABLE."
When you're performing printing followed immediately by cutting (Print and Cut), then
before you start cutting, allow the ink to dry sufficiently.
Use your software RIP to make the setting for the drying time. For information on how to make the setting,
refer to the documentation for the software RIP you're using. The drying time varies according to the media.

Setting The Cutting Test And The Blade Force

For high-quality cutting, then before you perform actual cutting, we recommend carrying out a cutting test
to check the cutting quality for the media. Adjust the blade force depending on the cutting quality.
