Saga SAGA-1350I User Manual - 6.3. Loading Media

6.3. Loading media

• Always load media for processing from the rear of the machine.

• Pull the lever upward to raise the pinch rollers, Load your media on the platen and

  slide it under the pinch rollers. Move the pinch rollers manually to the proper position. 

  Be sure the pinch rollers are positioned above the grid drum. The white marks on top

  trail will help you position pinch rollers when media on the platen. Push the lever 

  downward to lower down the pinch rollers.

• If you are using roll media rather than precut media, use the supplied roll holder to

  ensure that the media unrolls smoothly.

• When loading media, ensure that the media is straight to avoid warping when 

  transporting the media. A misalignment of just a few millimeters can cause severe

  media warp in longer plots.

• You can load the media at any horizontal position in the machine; it does not matter 

  whether the media is centered, or aligned on the left or right.

• Fix the pressure rollers by snapping them into place at the outer edges of the media;

  this ensures straight feeding of the media and defines the maximum cutting area

.

6.4. Setting the zero point

The zero point is the point on the loaded media where the plot job will start. You need

 to set the zero point whenever you switch the machine on, or after loading media for

 processing.

• Switch the cutting plotter on. When the cutting plotter is switched on, the cutting

  head can be changed and modified as required.

• To change the zero point setting for your cutting plotter, first press the Online/Offline

  key to toggle to Offline Mode.

• You can now adjust the zero point by pressing the four arrow keys. We recommend 

  setting the zero point to the front right corner of the media. While the cutter head is 

  moving, the current coordinates are display relative to the previous zero point setting.

• Press Enter to confirm the new zero point setting. 

  The coordinates shown in the display are set to zero.
