The force setting is determined from the carousel type. Use a carousel for the type of pens you have.

In other words, if these are the short felt tip pens, use a paper pen carousel.

The force can be manually set using the speed and force settings on the display. Force "2" is for paper pens, "1" for drafting and "6" for rollerball. This can be set once for ALL pens or for each pen individually.

Note: a power cycle, plotter init command or carousel change will revert all setting to match the carousel.
