• By turning on the "HALF CUT" function on the machine, you can perform a dotted line cut. When the HALF CUT function is enabled, the cutting line will automatically be cut in a dotted line pattern, so there is no need to create a dotted line cutting line in the data.

[About Penline Rubber and Penline Sponge]
Is it recommended to replace the Penline Rubber (used for normal cutting and pen writing) with the
Penline Sponge (used for dotted line cutting) during dotted line cutting.
While the Penline Rubber can be used for dotted line cutting, it may cause faster blade wear.
