Page 134: Notes On Inputting Data With Register Marks
Notes on Inputting Data with Register Marks There are some limitations on preparing data with register marks. In order to make full use of this function, read the following instructions carefully and prepare data with register marks properly. • The register mark described here is intended to detect the medium skew and the lengths along the X and Y axis.
Page 135 Cutting out Data with Register Marks No-printing Area around the Register Marks An area around a register mark (from the mark origin to the mark size area) is a non-printing area. There must be no data printed or stain in this area. Otherwise, a wrong origin may be detected or a mark read error can occur.
Page 136 The Size of a Register Mark Suited for the Distance between the Marks The size (B) of a register mark suited for the distance (A) between the marks is as shown below. If the mark size (B) is too small relative to the distance (A), the marks may not be detected correctly. Be sure to prepare the register marks with an appropriate size.
Page 137 Cutting out Data with Register Marks The Recommended Size of the Area Defined with a Set of Four Register Marks It is recommended that the size of the area defined with a set of four register marks is in the range of A4 size (210 mm x 297 mm) to A3 size (297 mm x 420 mm).
Page 138 Notes on Register Mark Detection Observe the following precautions on register mark detection. • When you retry medium detection, medium skew correction, scale correction between register marks, and the position of the origin are cleared. • Once the cutter unit detects marks, it will set the origin at the location of TP1. If you change the position of the origin to a different location using the jog keys, the origin at the new location will supersede the origin at TP1.

Cuts automatically the preset number of sheets while detecting register marks consecutively based (COPIES X) on the first data.
Page 142 Setting of skew check Set Value Description 0 to 99 mm This will set the allowable value of sheet declination when copying continuously. When copying continuously for roll sheet, the printing position may be misaligned gradually because of the sheet declination etc. In such a case, the operation can be continued by detecting register marks again with the following procedures: If the coordinate value of B axis of the Register mark 1 is misaligned exceeding the setting value, cutting operation suspends.
Page 143: Method Of Detecting Register Marks
Cutting out Data with Register Marks Method of Detecting Register Marks • If the medium is curled, straighten it. When using a cutting software having no mark function, use a medium which has neither stains nor images in the area (A) located between TP1 and TP2 and in the area (B) located between TP1 and TP3.
Page 144 Press the key after completing the settings. • The plotter will start detecting the register marks according to the settings of [MARK DETECT]. • See "MARK DETECT" ( P.4-12) for the number of register marks. • In case the cutter unit cannot detect any register marks, it displays "ERROR36　MARK DETECT" on the display.

Page 148 Correcting the Light Pointer Position If the cutter unit fails to recognize any register mark properly, the possible cause is an error in the positional relationship between the mark sensor and the light pointer. In this case, correct the position of the light pointer. Install a water-based ballpoint pen in the tool holder.
Page 149 Cutting out Data with Register Marks Adjust the Sensitivity (Light Intensity) of the Mark Sensor LED (Automatically) If an error occurs frequently in register mark detection, a possible cause is an improper sensitivity of the mark sensor LED.
