Roland Camm-1 GX24 help

[smo]

We have a Roland Camm-1 GX24 cutter, we dont use it much and generally only for reflective and flock for specific products....

Today we were "playing" with some new ideas and wanted to do some print and cut using the contour cut function. I googled and you-tubed and it seemed easy enough but i'm dammed if I can get the cutter to look in the right places for the registration marks.

It also seems that we can only use about 60% of an A4 sheet as the margins it wants to use are MASSIVE, the Oki we're printing on has margins of 4mm all round but the GX24 wants to use upto 40mm on one side which is crazy!

Can anyone help?

yeah there is nothing you can do about this

B*gger!

That explains why the videos on youtube all show silly little prints in the middle of an A4 sheet and nothing more substantial - renders the feature pretty useless

Square one again then as the residue left by the paper around the edges was unacceptable hence the wish to contour cut it.
