Symptom
• The cutting results differ from the
specified size.
• When the plotter is receiving data,
the PROMPT lamp lights (an off-
scale error occurs).
• Some parts of the media cannot
be cut
• Currently selected cutting
conditions are disregarded or
cannot be changed.
• Characters or lines are deformed
during pen plotting.
• The length of cutting results differs
from the program (slight distance
error).
• Cut characters are deformed.
• Complex drawings are deformed.
• The starting and end points of
cutting do not match.

Cause
The programmable resolution
(STEP SIZE) has been set
differently at the plotter and the
software application.
Scaling has been specified.
The programmable resolution
(STEP SIZE) has been set
differently at the plotter and the
software application.
The computer sent coordinate data
that exceeds the specified effective
cutting area.
The computer sent coordinate data
that exceeds the maximum effective
cutting area.
The parameter priority setting is set
to program mode.
The ENTER key was not pressed
after changing settings.
The plotter is in cutting mode.
The distance correction requires
adjustment.
The STEP PASS setting is set too
high.
Coordinate points are incorrectly
specified.
The media backing is too flimsy.
Blade rotation is not smooth.
Solution
Set both the plotter and the
software to the same resolution.
Check whether scaling has been
specified.
Set both the plotter and the
software to the same resolution.
Set the effective cutting area to a
larger area.
Switch to a larger media or change
the coordinate data.
Change the parameter from priority
setting to manual mode.
Verify setting the conditions.
Set the blade type on the CUTTER
OFFSET function to PEN (0)
Adjust the distance correction.
Lower the STEP pass setting.
Check the coordinate data by
plotting it with a pen.
Switch to a media with a stronger
backing.
Check that there is no dirt in the
holder.
