Cutter Driver Options-

Clicking this button launches the Cutter Driver Options dialog box, shown below.

Custom Head tab

None-

When this mode is selected, Roland COLORCHOICE will not send any settings regarding the cutting operation. The

settings in the printer panel will be used instead.

Cut Fast, Cut Medium, Cut Slow-

When these options are selected, Roland COLORCHOICE will send the settings for the

cutting operation. These settings will only take effect if the "VS COMMAND" and the "!FS COMMAND" are set to "ENABLED"

in the Printer panel. Each item can be unchecked to use the setting in the Printer panel.

Offset-

Set the appropriate value for the blade in use. Inappropriate values in this field can lead to poor cut quality or unfinished

cut lines. The default value is 250 (0.25mm).

Speed-

Set the cutting speed. Usually setting a lower speed will result in longer cut times, but will produce higher quality results.

Force-

Set the blade pressure for cutting. When the values set here are too small, the blade will not have enough pressure to cut

the sheet. Similarly, if the pressure is too high, not only it will not work properly, but it can cut through the back of the media and

may cause damage to printer. Be careful to set the correct value for the thickness and the hardness of the material you are using.

Custom End tab

Use this tab to specify that the media be cut after the job finishes. Selecting Cut Media and also checking the Cut Media checkbox

will send the appropriate cutting instruction to the cutter. Selecting None prevents the media from being cut.

Communication tab

The Communication tab displays basic communications settings. This is a standard windows tab.

Changing these settings is not

recommended
