    I also think that there is something glitchy with the most recent software update. I got a brand new laptop and I could not for the life of me get print and cut to work ( I'm very familiar with it as I have been making stickers for almost 4 years) but it was working PERFECTLY with my old laptop..so perfect that I could even cut in the dark.. I was getting frustrated with my new laptop, I was gonna return it.. then I was working on my old one and updated the software on that one and I was having the same issues I was with the new laptop. So I figured it was the software update..so I downgraded to the Legacy version and surprise surprise, BOTH my laptops are print and cutting PERFECTLY.

It was not printing correctly and it’s working like a charm just like it was before today. Thanks for the great info.

    This was awesome, thank you!
    Since you mentioned printers, I would like to add in my 2 cents. If you do a lot of printing it's worth your money to spend more to buy a printer with ink tanks instead of one that uses ink cartridges. Printer companies sell cheap printers at cost and then make the ink super expensive, but ink tank printers are more upfront but the ink is cheaper. As an Etsy sticker shop owner, I would never go back to ink cartridges. Not only is it most cost-effective, but I don't have to worry about changing out the ink cartridges twice a week.

    Any tips if your cut is slightly off when you don't do an offset? I find I have to trim a bit of white off one side of my image. The cut is not right on the image, but 1/16 off from the image, so you see the white paper between the image and the cut.

    I just bought a portrait 3 and am loving your channel and the portrait! Thank you for making tutorials I’m wondering if you might know what would cause lines to print on print and cut with breaks in them? My artwork looks normal on the screen and on my computer but when I print with silhouette there are jagged lines and breaks in my artwork that shouldn’t be there. I’m drawing them in procreate at 300 dpi and transferring as pngs to my MacBook and importing them to silhouette if I make them bigger like 3 per page it happens less but still there, the cut feature works great though. I know it’s a weird problem I can’t seem to find it happening to anyone else.
    Thanks

    I have two Cameo 4's. Purchased a few months apart. I can cut the same sheet on both of them but they both have different 'sweet' spots. One of them, the area the eye looks for the registration marks seems to be very exact / small. I'm so frustrated with it. I have to move my mat a millimeter at a time to hit the spot. It will rarely manually register. Is there a way to make the sweet spot more consistent / larger? My other cameo can cut in near darkness, with crappy / tiny registration marks but not the brand new one! Firmware is all updated.

    Thanks you saved me to at least get my old labels printed/cut. Couldn't figure out why labels I've been printing for years we're totally screwed up (haven't printed them in a year or so). It had to be an update in studio. The registration marks didn't work anymore and somehow it filled it the middle of letters with color. Remember, they were perfect before. Someone mention make/release compound path, yet, that took all the color away and made most letters themselves individual items. I have no recourse than to re-create a very detailed jar label. I did change the registration marks to default and and had to resize all the labels and printed these screwed up labels, just to get the jars done. I didn't have the hours to recreate such detail (since I had to figure out size of each section, fonts used, etc which were not available once I had grouped everything initially. I wish Studio had tested their update better (it could have been one of 3 updates that screwed everything up).

    This video was very helpful - and if I'm always using "letter sized" paper, it works great. Problem is, I use a lot of A4 decal paper and when I set the proper page size on Silhouette Cameo 3, it throws the bottom registration mark way off. Any way I can fix it so I can use my A4 paper? Thanks in advance!!!

    Hello, I just got the cameo 4 plus and I'm trying to print and cut Honey labels. I designed the labels Inkscape and exported as PNG from 320dpi down to 250dpi, but no matter what I do, it comes out printing horribly from silhouette studio. Very fuzzy and pizelated. Any suggestions to get me going? This would be a huge deal breaker for me since I need to design my own labels and can't use stock graphics.
    Thank you!

    Mine doesn't even catch the top left registration mark (the square one)... what should I do? And just earlier, when it FINALLY found it (by luck, I think), it cut 5.5 inches when what was on silhouette studio was 5.05 inches. It cut all the way to my mat. Please help. Thank you.

    Hello, I've tried setup the page setup. Even if I set both printer and the silhouette to letter size and it prints the whole mark on the bottom, it still doesn't want to register because the bottom mark it's not below enough like yours, not nearing the edge of the paper. the registration mark is always at default. I'm sorry if it's a stupid question, but I don't know how to fix this page setup issue :(
    Also, I tested with a normal paper first, size A4 because that's the only size I have.

    I just bought my silhouette cameo PLUS ♥ and registered my account, then downloaded the software for Mac, and I get an error when installing it.
    I think it is because I had connected the USB machine to the computer before installing the software.
    How can i fix this? What can I do now? I do not install the software.... Thank you

    Hi,
    I have a different problem and I'm hoping someone knows how to fix it. When I preview/print my design from Silhouette, it will be slightly faded out and not the same colour as before the preview/printing. Also, when printing through Photoshop, the prints come out more vibrant than with Silhouette.
    Does anyone else have this issue?

    Hello, is it possible to cut two 5x7 sticker sheets on a letter size sheet with adjusting the registration marks? My cuts are slightly off and I tried everything but I need to cut 2 5x7 sheets out of 1 sheet and that means I have to adjust the registration marks. Is there a right way to do this?

    • @SilhouetteSchool
      @SilhouetteSchool  2 роки тому

      You actually don't..just draw a 5x7 box in the work area and have that be the sticker sheet edge. Then put the stickers within it. You can leave the registration marks in the default spot. Use this tutorial > www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/2021/10/how-to-make-sets-of-kiss-cut-stickers.html

It’s not going for by much but it’s cutting off some of the design. Could my printer be too old it’s an HP envy 4500 and I have a silhouette cameo printer

      Hi there! If you have overhead lights make sure that you're not getting shadows. The shadows could be causing misreads in the registration marks.

    HI there! I really need help! I just got my cameo 4 and I feel like all of these things are good on what you said, but my cameo is cutting diagonally? Everything prints good (next time I need to check the registration marks, but I haven't changed any of those settings ever), I am super careful about making sure the paper is straight on the mat, and it registers good, but then I think the cut is going good because the first row is always okay, but by the end of it, the cuts are all the way to the right. I tried calibrating it, restarting my computer, and what feels like everything. I'm very frustrated and just want to go back to hand cutting my stickers 😣

      Either create an offset and fill it with the color of the design (but cut the edge of the design) to create a bleed area or create an internal offset in Silhouette Studio and cut that instead of the actual edge of the design (also creating a bleed area)
