CUT is what I want to do. Sorry for the confusion. Like you said, we use the LaserPoint machine for cutting. I will do some more alignment testing to figure this out. I was just hoping there was some videos or guides to help with learning, and to make it easier. Thanks.

Please take a look at the image I've linked-to, for what my concern is. So, let's say I want to cut this music note. My mat size in Sure Cuts a Lot is 8 1/2 x 11, landscape orientation. And, I will be cutting with a piece of vinyl the same size. http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/gallery/image/1844-image-layout-test/ Without doing extensive testing and wasting paper or vinyl, is there a way to figure out where place or align the piece of vinyl in the cutter, so it cuts that shape, from just that portion of the vinyl? Or, maybe I would have three shapes in a row, or the page will be filled with all kinds of different shapes or designs. I just want to know how to figure out where to start the cut, or where to place the vinyl, so it knows that I have a 8 1/2 x 11 landscape piece of vinyl in there and it will cut it correctly. Thanks.

Hello. Can anyone point me to some resources on how to properly align pieces of vinyl for cutting with a LaserPoint Cutter? Let's say I have a precut piece at 8x8, I want to be sure where to place it so the design I cut, will match up with the placement of the vinyl. Where do I line up the front edge of the vinyl with? And do I line it up all the way to the right opening of the cutter? I was trying to find videos or guides for this, but I wasn't able to find anything yet.

signyouup, that turns out to be the problem. It was frustrating to troubleshoot at first, not knowing where to look. But, it turned out the paper wasn't being moved/rolled, so the line was being drawn, instead of an actual shape. Thanks everyone!

Hi. I'm new to this. I'm working on getting everything setup, configured and tested. I'm using a pen for some initial testing. I have Sure Cuts A Lot Pro 3, and I'm using a USCutter LaserPoint for cutting. I'm trying to test with just a basic shape. I create my shape and I send it to the cutter, then all I see the cutter do is make a line and then it's done. Does anyone have ideas on why this might be happening? Thanks!
