6.6 Specifying the Page Length
This function lets you specify the length of each page. When using a roll medium, the PAGE LENGTH
setting corresponds to the length per page. Before performing long-axis cutting of an image longer
than two meters, be sure to specify the PAGE LENGTH setting.

NOTE : • The PAGE LENGTH setting is retained in the cutting plotter’s internal memory, even
while the cutting plotter is turned off.
• The cutting plotter’s distance precision is guaranteed for page feed operations up to
two meters. In the case of an image longer than two meters, long-axis cutting can
be performed for up to 50 meters in the feeding direction. (This maximum distance
is based on the use of 3M plastic-backed film with the cutting conditions of: SPEED
= 30 or less, QUALITY = 1.)
• In the case of long-axis cutting, be especially careful when loading color adhesive-
backed film. If the film is loaded at even a slight angle, the film may come loose from
the rollers which hold it in place.
• For long-axis cutting using roll film, pull out the length of film you intend to use before
you load the film.
