To use this machine for printing and cutting material with cutting data printed, you must perfectly
align the printed graphics and the cutting positions. The crop marks digitally generated around the
graphics can be automatically detected for accurate alignment. In this manual, this feature is called
AAS.
Crop Mark Types
Cutting job functions, the shape of four corners, and the job output source differ depending on crop
marks generated by the AAS plug-in or GreatCut-R plug-in. Select the method to generate crop marks
based on factors such as the cutting data and time required for cutting.

feeding).
MEMO
Crop marks are created on the selected object or page (work page for cutting data). When creating crop marks on an
object, you can set up three different types of crop marks suitable for the cutting data.
Four-point
This type of crop mark is the basic crop marks created in the four corners of the selected object. The
settings for four-point crop marks are applied to all crop marks. These crop marks are used to set up
crop marks for each page instead of in an object.
