Step-by-Step Workflow

1. Add Devices in VerteLith

3. Link CutEnvironment to PrintEnvironment

   • Edit your PrintEnvironment and click Next until you reach the screen where you can link the CutEnvironment.
   • Select the correct CutEnvironment and click Save.
     
4. Prepare and Send the Job

   • In the job settings, enable:
     Crop Marks > Enable crop marks for cutters.
     
5. Send Job to Printer and Cutter
   • Send the job to the printer.
   • A cut job will automatically be generated in the specified folder for your cutting software.
   • Open your cutting software (e.g., Summa Cutter Control) to begin cutting.
