Selecting A Set Of Cutting Conditions - GRAPHTEC CE2000-60 User Manual

Reference Pen Conditions for Plotting Pens
Pen type
Water based fiber-tip pen
To preserve the pen's longevity, set the FORCE to the lowest possible setting that permits you to obtain
the desired plotted results. Set the SPEED after checking the plotted results for the absence of faint
lines and other problems.
NOTE : • If the SPEED and QUALITY are set to high values, the cut/plotted results have a
coarser finish but the overall cutting/plotting time is shortened.
• If the SPEED and QUALITY settings are set to low values, the cut/plotted results
have a finer finish but the overall cutting/plotting time is longer.

4.4.1 Selecting a Set of Cutting Conditions

Four different sets of user-defined cutting conditions can be registered in the plotter's memory as COND
Nos. 1 through 4. To specify a set of cutting conditions, you must first select the destination COND No. By
selecting a different COND No., you can easily switch between pre-defined cutting conditions for four types
of media.
