If the media is not loaded and set up correctly, or media feed is not smooth, cutting may be adversely affected. Make sure the media is loaded and set up correctly.
Are the settings for the cutting conditions appropriate?
Misalignment or skewing may occur if the cutting speed is too fast or the blade force is too high. Try changing the cutting conditions. With media having a strong adhesive layer, the adhesive layer reattaches to itself immediately after cutting. However, if a cutting test shows that the peeling of the media and the blade traces on the backing paper are optimal, then the media is being cut properly. Be careful not to make the blade force too high.
Is the length of output too long?
For printing & cutting in particular, the longer the page length (that is, the longer the distance the media is returned after printing), the greater is the chance of misalignment occurring. It is a good idea to keep the size of each single page to the minimum necessary.
Are you using media that exhibits large expansion and contraction?
When you're performing printing & cutting, misalignment occurs if the media expands or contracts. If this happens, try performing printing with crop marks, then setting the base point and one or more align points and performing cutting. This corrects for expansion and contraction of the media.
