发明名称 Control of plotter cutting depth when cutting label media
摘要 Methods and systems are disclosed for controlling cutting depth of a label media such that the depth of cut is media-specific, that is, specific to the media being cut. The method includes: providing a plotter cutter and a force-generating mechanism; providing a memory device for electronic communication with the plotter cutter, the memory device having a label media-specific value stored thereon; reading the label media-specific value from the memory device; converting the label media-specific value to a label media-specific current signal; providing a label media-specific current based on the label media-specific current signal; applying the label media-specific current to a force-generating mechanism; generating a label media-specific cutting force based on the label media-specific current; and transferring the label media-specific cutting force to the plotter cutter to control plotter cutting at the label media-specific cutting depth. The methods and systems work towards eliminating waste or scrap plotter test cuts by plotter cutting a label media using information from, for example, a memory device associated with a label media supply. The methods and systems obviate the need for manual resetting of plotter cutter depth from one label media to another. <IMAGE>
