Precautions in inputting data with registration marks

There are some limitations on preparing data with registration marks. In order to make full use of this function, read the following instructions carefully and prepare data with registration marks properly.

Size of the registration marks

Refer to "The size of, and the distance between, registration marks"( P.41) for the relationship between the data and the length of one side of a registration mark.

The area where registration marks and designs can be arranged

• The TP1 starting position must be 20 mm or more away from the leading edge of the sheet.

• The TP2 end position must be 30 mm or more away from the tail end of the sheet.

Mark Form : Type 1

Mark Form : Type 2

No-plotting area around the registration marks

An area around a registration mark (from the mark origin to the mark size area) is a non-plotting area. There must be no data plotted or stain in this area; otherwise, a wrong origin may be detected or a mark read error can occur.

Example of cause of wrong detection 1

There is a line outside the registration marks

Example of cause of wrong detection 2

The distance between registration marks (TP2 and TP1 or TP4 and TP2) is smaller than the mark length (for Type 2)

• If a wrong mark origin is detected, the cutting will be performed in a wrong area.

The size of, and the distance between, registration marks

The size (B) of a registration mark suited for the distance (A) between the marks is as shown below. If the mark size (B) is too small relative to the distance (A), the marks may not be detected correctly. Be sure to prepare the registration marks with an appropriate size.

(mm)

Distance between registration marks for copied designs

For Type 1 registration marks, the distance between the marks must be not shorter than two times the mark length and not longer than 1000 mm. For Type 2 registration marks, the distance between the marks must be not shorter than the mark length and not longer than 1000 mm.

Cut Out Data with Registration Mark

Recommended size of the area defined with a set of four registration marks

It is recommended that the size of the area defined with a set of four registration marks is in the range of A4 size (210 mm x 297 mm) to A3 size (297 mm x 420 mm). If yo u follow this recommendation, you can minimize wasteful spaces and arrange the designs efficiently.

Color of mark

The mark must be printed in black against the white background. The registration mark will not be detected correctly if the background is not white or the mark is not black.

Mark blurred

If the mark is blurred, a wrong mark origin can be detected, thus resulting in deviated cutting.
