    sad Another newbie

    Hi I am so disheartened as no matter what I do I can not get my craft robo to read registration marks unless I am in almost total darkness and then it cuts half a cm to the right of the image . I have followed the Robo master manual to the letter. Also is their anyone in my area that I could talk to or even meet up to swap ideas, I am on the top of exmoor, I love crafting and would welcome a new friend

    ive done loads of threads about hints for printing and cutting do an advance search using my name and stuff should come up.

    i have to say though if you are new to robo i would always advise to stay away from any multi layered design and print and cuts untill you have mastered all the basics with your machine.

    don't give up, I have just mastered print and cut and it is great when it clicks, are you using shiny card as this can be difficult, try it with a mat card

    don't worry mostly every one who purchases a robo always as the same problem with registration marks not reading, my self included, if you read all the info you wont go wrong, make sure the reg marks on the sheet you are feeding through are at an equal distance away from the white plastic bits on either side of the rollers, that is how i do it and it works every time for me, even with shiny gloss paper, also it helps some, depending on what printer you have if you make your printer settings border less
