Notes

  • Do not move the images on the Canvas after printing. Otherwise, this will lead to an imprecise cutting result.
  • Please hold the cutting mat by hand when loading the material.
  • Please use materials with a matte finish. The glossy side may result in poor cutting results.
  • It is recommended to use A4 (21.0×29.7 cm, 8.27×11.69 in) or letter (21.59×27.94 cm, 8.50×11.00 in) paper sizes for Print-then-Cut.
