• Step size/cm
The standard is 400 steps per centimeter. The RW-470
PLOTCLIENT WEB therefore enters 400 as a default value, which
does not normally have to be altered. Nevertheless, it is some-
times advisable to ask the customer what step number per cen-
timeter they are used to working with to guarantee plot
consistency. Furthermore, it can be necessary to make a change
to reduce the DPI, to release more system memory for large
drawings:
Attention: If you enter a larger value, you will obtain a

ample: if you enter 401, the drawing is reduced to
99.75 %.

mum pen width in “Pen settings“ if the drawing is to be reduced
in size and at least one maximum pen width if the drawing is to
be enlarged
• Clipping
The clipping command removes the white edges on the border
of the drawing. Most plotter languages differ from each other in
many ways to a greater or lesser extent – including with respect
to the section, which, put simply, refers to the paper size.
This fact means that undesirable printing results are obtained, if
a drawing is only printed in sections or in the most unfavorable
case a white sheet of paper comes out of the plotter.
The “Clipping” function is considered in the context of the widely
used reference plotter “HP DesignJet 650 C / C 2859b“: If you
