speed and PRS ??

[kris_hm]

Hi,
My new cutter just arrived and it's my first one as well so probably will have a lot of questions to you

for start just two:
1. what speed and PRS (pressure??) should I set up on cutter ??
2. I can manually adjust blade, could you please advise how much it should stick out from it's cover ??

thanks !

Hi there,

You may kill your plotter doing this, they are not designed to cut card - also your blades won't last 2 minutes. Buy a cheap guillotine to cut your cards down.
