Cutter .. Cameo ?

[bigj2552]

thanks paul....that aint even the work space lol......thats over the other side of the room

right....need some info here....cameo print n cut....

looked on youtube......

to do print n cut it says i have to print design out with registration marks...yep, fine...then put it into the cameo and it will cut out the design...yep......

does that mean i will have to load the vinyl into the brother to get printed FIRST i take it...then take it out and fire it into the cameo for it to cut it out with the registration marks ?

if so....how the hell do i load it into the brother printer i got 5910dw.....its got a tray feed system at the bottom...and
WILL IT TAKE VINYL without jamming it ???....

or am i missing the point here altogether ? ....early days yet :rolleyes:

anyone ?

You don't print onto the flex or vinyl. These are single coloured items which you cut only.
You can buy other materials that you print onto via the Cameo and the load into the Cameo and these will be A4 sheets. The image must be in the Cameo software with cut lines set and then printed. For subli dark you would need to use PowerDriver (not available for Brother) to ensure correct colour management. Other materials could be colour laser vinyl or printable flex (not sublimation inks, but Epson durabrite) or OBM for colour laser (these are just examples).

Sorry, I don't know what you have got, but I presume it is flex, not vinyl. Flex is heat pressed onto garments. Vinyl is sticky backed for windows etc. We have discontinued vinyl so I presume you have flex unless you are using another suppliers vinyl.
