FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
My settings seem very different to those on the settings guide table.
The settings are wide to allow for all different thicknesses of materials. It is advisable to start in the middle of the range, so
you can adjust either way. If you have tried a variety of settings and you are not achieving the desired results please contact
your retailer.
What weight of cardstock works well with TODO™?
Around 180gsm to 240gsm works well and uncoated is fabulous!
I’m having difficulty achieving a good Die Cut with TODO?
1. Try to run the die through twice and also rotate it. You will feel by the pressure of the machine.
2. D plate can replace the B plate in your cutting sandwich. This has a smaller surface area so the pressure is more focussed
on the Die itself.
3. Some of the more complex dies may need additional shim; Try placing a metal shim under the base plate in the well of the
machine.
Note:
The metal shim cannot be too thick so as to avoid damaging the electrical point.
I’m having difficulty achieving a good hot foil finish with TODO?
1. Ensure that you wait for the machine indicator light to turn green. This should take approximately 10-12 minutes. If for
some reason the machine fails to heat up/turns green quicker than expected return the machine to your retailer.
2. Put the selected hot foil stamp onto the hot plate to warm up; this will ensure the heat has distributed through your chosen
stamp. Run the TODO roller over the hot foil sandwich – take your time to allow the foil to adhere properly to your media.
3. Ensure the foils used are compatible with the TODO machine and ensure they are not creased of damaged as this will
affect your results.
Can I emboss thin dies with embossed detail?
You can emboss and cut by adding your C plate to your normal cutting sandwich (between the card and the B/D plate). You
will need to increase your normal cutting level by 4 increments to allow for the extra height. E.g - A thin die normally cut at a
roller height of 4.5 should be increased to 8.5 after adding the C plate.
