NOTE: This article assumes the reader has already activated the ARMS on their vinyl cutter and is experiencing misaligned contour cuts.

Several factors help determine whether a contour cut will align properly with the object to which it is applied. Let's consider four adjustments we recommend to resolve misaligned contour cuts.
  • The first thing an operator should do when having an issue with contour cut positioning is adjust the sensitivity level of the registration mark auto-detection sensor.
  • The third thing that we suggest, if contour cuts continue to be out of alignment, is adjust manually.
  • Finally, if the contour cut's alignment worsens as the job progresses, the operator may need to use the Output Size Compensation in the Production Manager.
