Working With Media and Cartridge(s) Loading Media Compensating for Badly Cut Media You can only use this feature when sheet media is selected on the front panel. If the media is persistently difficult to load, it could be an indication that it has been badly cut. That is, it has been cut unevenly with the media width on the leading edge different to the width of the trailing edge. A front-panel option called Skew tolerance helps you compensate for the shape of some poorly cut media. When you properly load the leading edge of badly cut media along the perforated line on the platen, you may notice the trailing edge is displaced from the line by a small distance and the plotter will not accept the media. The plotter can accept poorly cut media that is displaced 1.0 cm or less from the perforated line. Media that is cut properly should not need the help of the skew tolerance feature. In fact, using this feature for properly cut media increases the risk of skewing your plot on the page.
