Aligning the Register Mark Sensor Position

The offset between the cutter and register mark sensor can be adjusted.

Up to 8 correction value types can be registered. When multiple types of media are used, the register mark detection position may shift in a specific direction depending on the media characteristics. Select a media number in the register mark detection settings and register the most suitable adjustment values for that media, and the adjustment values for that media will be applied only by selecting the media number.

  1. Attach a cutter to the cutter holder.
  1. Load a sheet on which register marks are printed.
