Sometimes a blurry registration mark help

Post by CrossHairSB »

Hi, I'm not sure why my printer does this, but it wastes valuable media. Is there another way to make registration marks inside the print? Appreciate any of your talented help ty.
Best,
Ken

If you are on SCAL5 then go to Cutter>Cutter Settings and look for a drop menu in the reg mark settings section. Because you didn't mention which particular brand and model of cutter you own, I cannot confirm if your cutter supports having the reg marks positioned more freely, but this is where I go to make that change for the cutters I support. If you don't find that menu, also verify you're on the latest update of SCAL5 by going to this link and downloading the latest. Note that using Help>Check for Updates doesn't typically work.

Thank you Sandy,
Looks like I am up to date with Scal5. Is this the settings you are looking for?

Okay... no problem, then. You can change that value, 1.48 cm, to something higher to move the reg marks closer in. I do recommend turning on Show Reg Marks on the Document Panel so that it will show you where the reg marks will then print relative to your design. But certainly you have a lot of freedom to move them with that particular setting. :)
