    Scan and Cut-A tangent for Discussion

    Wilson-Flyer - I would be sooo into this. I have a brother Scan'n'cut - sadly it's an amazing feature and horrible performance. I bought it to replace our 9 year old Cricut and it can't cut nearly as well. Horrible and ZERO help from Brother or the service centers. Z E R O.... (We sold the Cricut before we figured out that the Brother would not be good enough). It's sad really - the machine hardware appears to be able to do amazing things. So I just bought P20 to hopefully create a workflow and quality level that is better. I'm stuck because I can't get the print head aligned well enough for what I would like to do. IE> We print on 4" vinyl in a thermal printer and I want to take a 4" wide print, stick it to a mat and then align the cut on the machine. Ideally, using the camera to find a fixed spot on the print would be perfect. Using the ARMS registration marks eats up too much material, cutting our yield in half. Similarly, we often want to cut a letter-size sheet very close to the edge, but this seems impossible. Even more basic than above, even if I just want to cut a pattern 3.75" on 4" wide tape, I need to get the head accurately positioned. What I don't understand is why we can't use manual mark locations - or even marks INSIDE the artwork. There is no reason that the marks have to be on the outside, assume the machine holds registration, once it knows where it is, it should be able to cut anywhere. I did however, find this info on what I assume is the same machine with different firmware: See page 62 of this manual: Sky-Cut C16: "Set the origin using the camera"? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aXG1HCRKBA0eNh237InLjvMB0T0n1Whl/view?usp=sharing
