ii
Safety Precautions
WARNING
Do not touch the rollers or moving parts such as the
carriage while cutting or plotting is in progress.
•Such action may result in injury.
No touching
Be sure to ground the earth terminal.
•If the plotter is not grounded, the operator could suffer an
electric shock in the event of current leakage.
Ground the Plotter
Keep your hands, hair, etc., away from the rollers or
moving parts such as the carriage even if the plotter is
stopped, as it may suddenly start moving when data is
received.
•Such action may result in injury.
No touching
Do not disassemble, repair, or remodel the plotter.
• Such action may cause electric shock or a re hazard due to
current leakage.
•Contact with the high-voltage parts within the plotter may
cause electric shock.
•If the plotter requires repairs, contact your sales
representative or nearest Graphtec vendor.
No disassembly
Do not connect the plotter to a non-rated power
supply.
• Such action may cause electric shock or a re hazard due to
current leakage.
Prohibited
Do not use the plotter in a location where it will be
exposed to water, rain, or snow.
• Such action may cause electric shock or a re hazard due to
current leakage.
Avoid water
Beware of
electrical shock
If the plotter generates smoke, overheats, emits a
strange odor, or otherwise functions abnormally, do
not continue using it. Turn off the power and unplug
the power cord from the electrical socket.
• Use of the plotter in such a condition may result in a re
hazard or electric shock.
• After conrming that smoke is no longer being emitted,
contact your sales representative or nearest Graphtec vendor
for repairs.
•Never attempt to perform repairs yourself.
Repair work by inexperienced
personnel is extremely dangerous.
Prohibited
Do not allow dust or metal scraps to adhere to the
power plug.
• Such action may cause electric shock or a re hazard due to
current leakage.
Prohibited
Beware of
electrical shock

iii
Safety Precautions
WARNING
CAUTION
Do not use the power cord if it is damaged.
• Use of a damaged cord may result in electric shock or a re
hazard due to current leakage.
•Replace the power cord with a new one.
Unplug the power
cord from the socket
Be careful when handling the cutter blade.
•Touching the blade with your bare hand may cause injury.
•Do not touch the cutter blade while cutting is in progress.
No touching
Do not use or store the plotter in a location exposed
to direct sunlight or the direct draft of an air
conditioner or heater.
•Such locations may impair the
performance of the plotter.
Prohibited
Do not use the plotter in an excessively dusty or
humid location.
•Such locations may impair the performance of the plotter.
Prohibited
Do not place any receptacle containing water or
other uid on top of the plotter.
•Fluid falling inside the plotter may cause electric shock or a
re hazard due to current leakage.
Avoid water
Beware of
electrical shock
Do not use the plotter in a location subject to
excessive mechanical vibration or electrical noise.
•Such locations may impair the performance of the plotter.
Prohibited
When disconnecting the power cord or interface
cable, do not pull on the cord/cable.
• Such action will damage the cord/cable, resulting in a re
hazard or electric shock.
Prohibited
If water or foreign matter enters the plotter,
discontinue use. Turn off the power and unplug the
power cord from the electrical socket.
• Use of a damaged cord may result in electric shock or a re
hazard due to current leakage.
•Contact your sales representative or nearest Graphtec vendor
for repairs.
Unplug the power
cord from the socket

iv
Safety Precautions
CAUTION
Do not clean the plotter using volatile solvents such
as thinner or benzene.
•Such action may impair its performance.
Prohibited
Do not place the plotter on an incline, areas subject
to many vibrations, or other unstable locations.
•If the plotter falls, it may sustain damage.
Do not place magnetic cards, diskettes or similar
items in the vicinity of the tool carriage.
•The magnetic force may destroy the data on the magnetic
cards or diskettes.
Prohibited
Run a test cut when cutting media with unknown
condition settings.
•Running a cut operation with incorrect setting values may
cause a large overload to the blades and device or a system
breakdown.
Do not attempt to lubricate the cutting-plotter
mechanisms.
•Such action may cause it to break down.
Prohibited
Provide sufcient space around the plotter so that
it does not strike any objects in its vicinity during
cutting.
•Such contact may cause misalignment in cutting or plotting.
No touching
When using the cutter, take care not to extend the
blade more than necessary.
•An overly extended blade will damage the cutting mat and
adversely affect the cutting quality.
When using indoor lighting such as uorescent or
other electrical lamps, provide a distance of at least
one meter between the plotter and the light source.
•Close proximity of such a light source may cause the sensor
to malfunction and prevent proper size detection of the media.
Move the tool carriage slowly when moving it
manually in order to load the medium or for other
reasons.
•Moving it quickly may damage the plotter.
Prohibited

Preface
Thank you for choosing a Graphtec CE6000 Series plotter. The CE6000 Series plotters employ a digital
servo drive system to achieve high-speed and high-precision cutting. In addition to cutting marking film and
other media, an CE6000 series plotter can also be used as a pen plotter. To ensure high cutting quality and
optimal productivity, be sure to read this User's Manual thoroughly prior to use.

Special Precautions on Handling Blades
Sharp cutter blades are used with this plotter. Handle the cutter blades and holders with care to prevent
bodily injury.
Cutter Blades
Cutter blades are very sharp. While handling a cutter blade or cutter pen, be careful to avoid cutting your
ngers or other parts of your body. Promptly return used blades to the cutter case provided.
Blade tip
When the case is completely lled, discard the used blades together with the case.
Cutter Pens
The tip consists of a sharp blade. Be sure not to extend it too far. Moreover, when you are not using the
cutter pen, make sure that the blade is fully retracted.
Cutter blade
After Mounting the Cutter Pen
After the power has been turned on, and during operation, do not touch the pen tip. It is dangerous.

III
After Turning on the Plotter
During the course of turning on the plotter, be sure to observe the following precautions. The tool carriage
and loaded media may suddenly move during the cutting operation, immediately afterward and when setting
the plotter's functions. Keep hands, hair, clothing and other objects out of the vicinity of the tool carriage, grit
rollers and loaded media. To prevent operator injury and poor cutting results, be careful not to allow hands,
hair, clothing or other foreign objects to become entangled with the tool carriage or loaded media while the
plotter is operating.
Machine Caution Label
The machine's Caution Label is located on the top cover. Be sure to observe all the cautions on the label.
Notes on the Stand
Be sure to use only the stand designed for the CE6000 Series with your CE6000 Series plotter. The use of a
different stand may cause a plotter malfunction or bodily injury.
