6.1. Removing the media
• After pressing the Online key in the operating panel, you can use the arrow keys to feed the me-
dia forward and backward. To ensure clean cutting of the plotted objects, feed the media forward
sufficiently to allow a clean cut at the cutting edge using a suitable knife.
• If you are working with pre-cut media, simply release the pressure rollers and remove the media
from the machine.
6.2. Finishing the media
6.2.1. Weeding
Weeding refers to the process of removing the parts of the
media you do not require. We recommend using a scalpel or a
special weeding tool for this job, to avoid damage to the adhe-
sive surface.
After weeding, you can use a transfer press to transfer flock and
flex media to the textiles to be processed; apply application tape
to self-adhesive media before transferring.
6.2.2. Applying
Apply application tape to the weeded material and use a roller
or flat scraper to press down firmly. To apply adhesive to the
transfer foil, remove the backing from the foil to leave the ad-
hesive affixed to the application tape. You can now apply the
adhesive to the required surface.
