Adjusting the
Cutter Blade
Blade adjustment may be necessary when:
- cutting material whose carrier paper is thinner than the material itself
- cutting material with no carrier paper
When cutting is performed after printing, the cap tip of the blade holder may scratch the printed surface. If this is the case,
lengthen the cutter blade extension.
When stock vinyl film is to
be cut, tighten the cap all
the way (2.5 mm (about
0.1") of blade extension).
Tighten the cap until
gap is eliminated
