Troubleshooting
Stopping in the middle of a job (Power light is blinking)
The CraftROBO has simply paused to cool down. When the internal temperature reaches a certain threshold, the machine stops temporarily to cool down, and will resume the cutting job as soon as the temperature drops to an acceptable level. Grab a cup of coffee and wait a while.
Stopping in the middle of a job (Power light is on, but not blinking)
The cutting job requires more memory than the CraftROBO has onboard, and the CraftROBO has ignored any additional data beyond this limit. As far as the CraftROBO is concerned, the job is finished. The solutions are:
> Break down the job into multiple passes. One pass for fold lines, and one pass for cut lines.
> If breaking down the job into two passes still does not solve the issue, increase the dashed line spacing to a larger value. (For example, if you had the dashed line setting specified as 0.5mm/0.5mm, increase it to 1mm /1mm, and so on.)
If neither of the two solutions above worked, remove some parts from the page. Continue removing parts until the CraftROBO successfully completes the cutting job.
Failure to read registration marks
There are a few reasons why the CraftROBO may not successfully read registration marks:
> Too much direct light interferes with the optical sensor. The solution is to move the CraftROBO or the light source so that there is no direct light shining upon it. Sometimes leaving the cover down will solve this problem.
> Overly glossy paper. Sometimes inkjet prints on glossy paper reflect too much light and cause a failure to read registration marks. The solution is to use matte paper instead.
> Overly glossy printout. Some laser printers use toner that has too much gloss, which may cause a failure to read registration marks.
> Misaligned sheets. The CraftROBO expects to find registration marks at a specific location, and a sheet that is too far to one side or the other will stump the CraftROBO when it attempts to find registration marks, but is physically incapable of reaching them because of the sheet positioning. The solution is to ensure that the sheet is centered between the rollers, and that the registration marks are between the rollers. Additionally, make sure the paper size for the cutting job is the same as the paper size specified for the print job.
