About Cutting

The term “cut” is used in multiple ways in the Color & Cut system. To help you avoid confusion, the terms as used are defined here:

Cut	The standard Microsoft Windows “Cut” command, which
	means removing an object from its current location and
	temporarily storing it for later retrieval. (This term is
	not used in this chapter.)
Cut out	The action of cutting out objects or text using the plotter
	cutter inside your printer. The cutter follows the shape
	of the object or text. An object that is cut out cannot be
	printed.
Cut out	The action of cutting out a label that has been framed.
frame	You apply a frame to a label using the Label Properties
	options (See Adding a label frame on page 6-32). The
	plotter cutter cuts around the outside edge of the frame
	line.
	Also, when you apply the Supply Saver option or are
	printing multiple copies, the system performs this action
	automatically. (See Supply saver option on page 11-22
	for more information.)
Cut	The action of cutting around an object that is enclosed by
bounding	a cut bounding box. The plotter cutter cuts the box
box	shape, not the shape of the object inside it.
Print	To produce or to output the contents of the current file.
	For the Color & Cut system, the labels in a file may
	include both printed objects and cut out objects, even
	though print objects may only be printed and cut out
	objects may only be cut out.
Shear	A straight cut through the tape and liner that separates
	the output label from the remaining tape supply.
Weeding	A cut around the outside of a cut text object.
