    It’s 2 am in the morning and I love you for this lol. Worked perfectly after over an hour of trying to figure out why my Cameo wouldn’t read the registration marks on glossy vinyl sticker paper. (It teased me by working perfectly on first try then stopped). You were a life saver! Thank you!

    I have tried everything to get the print and cut to work and read the registration marks. After saving up to buy the new Cameo I am so sorry I bought the Cameo 4. Just having to "trick" the machine to be able to cut is just plain crazy....we should not have to do that. The time it takes to try to get it work correctly should not be happening. Silhouette needs to correct this issue...PLEASE.

    Idk if this will make any sense but I’m gonna give it a shot… when sublimating onto oracle 651 and trying to use the “print and cut” feature after you’ve sublimated the design onto the 651 the registration marks are reversed. Is it possible for the cameo to still register those and cut correctly or will I need to cut the vinyl first before I sublimate onto it? I really hope this makes sense 🤦🏻‍♀️😂. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    Had an issue and figured it out, figured I'd share it since I couldn't find it in the vid:
    With super glossy paper (I use high gloss sticker paper) just turn off any lights close to the printer, but have some ambient light.
    Had multiple failures on a new high cost material and as soon as I went "wait, maybe the light is distorting/reflecting the registration marks" did I start having consistent perfect prints.
    Hope this helps!

      This may sound weird, and I hope it is helpful...but check to see if the little metal grippers (metal coil things that help feed the media in the machine) are causing the vinyl to bubble and warp the top square registration mark when its trying to read them. If so try to use something to help flatten it while it reads, or even lifting the vinyl from underneath while it's trying to read the registration marks. I have had a lot of issues with the media warping that tiny square and this helped me!

      @KMMC7349 3 роки тому

      Both are great, cameo software is more complex and better for people who are wanting to do more. Portrait has a more user-friendly software and is more of a plug and play kind of machine that can still do a lot. Its kind of like apple vs android. Both can do about the same and get the job done, just comes down to preference! Hope that helps!!

  • @DU5TCLAN
    @DU5TCLAN 2 місяці тому

    When registrating the paper sheet (using normal 4A simple printing paper just for testing) the cameo 5 finds the top square with ease.. but when it tries to find the left bottom registration mark, the cameo 5 just takes the whole paper too far in and tries to scan the end of my cutting mat... this happens every time, I thought maybe if I change the bottom offset by adding it almost at the top but it keeps skipping the corner, made the registration lines thicker and smaller but nothing seems to work 😥

      @@JD-vh4ct I totally get it, I am a stationary shop owner, so I have my products printed second hand at a professional printing shop, so making sure my marks are read perfect every time is sooo important! I updated my software thinking that might have been the issue... and it still didn't help. So what I tried was, completely resetting all the cut marks and making sure the were longer and thicker then the thin lines, placing white out over the already printed registration marks and printing new ones and that fixed most of the problems. But! On some of the times it wasn't working property one other thing I did; was when the machine was using the lazer to read I turned my head so I could see how it was reading and noticed my matt when fed into the rollers, was bending funny and causing a slight bowing or bent upward in a "U" like shape towards the lazer. So when it began to try reading the mark it "though" the mark was skewed. So to correct this issue I held the matt slightly upward and/or placed a small, thin, and flat object to hold it down while it registered ( while checking to make sure the mat was flat at eye level with the red little lazer). This seemed to fix some of the issues some of the time, but ever once in a while... this is not the issue and the thing doesn't read them right still 🤦‍♀️. Hopefully is just a bug and with time the cameos will get better!!

  • @ikittygg
    @ikittygg 3 роки тому

    The ink smear portion is untrue. With inkjet printers, the ink smears because it does not absorb the ink, it just sits on top of the paper. Laser, lasers inside of the paper because it uses powder. Inkjet is liquid. That is why you get smudging. Whenever printing using inkjet you want to make sure you change your settings to the slowest printer speed so that the ink can dry but it should not smear. If it does, the paper is not compatible.

      It could be the calibration is off which there are videos about checking that. Or it could be an issue with the print and cut lazer. Try making sure your matt is laying flat when its trying to read registration marks as they can bow or bend under the roller at times, even the slightest bit can make the registration mark look skewed and cause cutting issues! Hope this helps!! 💕

Thought it will make my life easier with making a bunch of stickers for my shop, it gave me a lot of headaches and frustrations instead. It cuts perfectly one time, and 3 minutes later, with EXACTLY the same settings, the same paper and everything else it just goes crazy and the cuts get way off. I’ve spent so many hours trying to figure it out, ruined over 50 sticker sheets in the process, now I’m ready to throw it out through the window.
