Setting cutter options

In the Cutter Options window of default job properties, you can control the parameters of operation of your cutter, such as cut speed and pressure, and execute common tasks, such as roll forward, roll backward, or return to origin, from your computer.

Each command can be enabled or disabled. When the command is selected, you can change the value, and it will be sent to the cutter overriding the cutter settings. When the command check box is cleared, the cutter settings are used.

Note: The settings available in the Cutter Options window vary according to your cutter. The commands and options in the following tables are examples.
