My silhouette cameo went wonky when it hit a half sheet of paper on the mat.

Silhouette cameo 3 is cutting off the mat.

Thank you so much for posting this including and especially the solution. What is your best cameo 3 tip. To load the cutting mat into the silhouette machine. I ve been trying to cut svg files the last few days couldn t get them to save in the proper place or unzip.

The same goes for the portrait 2 autoblade. Press load from the control panel on the front of the machine. Start by gently positioning the top edge of the silhouette cutting mat along the white rollers. Thanks again for sharing.

Have had my cameo since thanksgiving haven t taken the time to play with it much. In most cases there are two quick fixes that will fix the issue and get you cutting successfully in a hurry. The mat was feeding initially but then would start slanting and feeding totally wrong and end up at. I was soooo frustrated today kept cutting into my mat it cut the top off several of the images i was cutting.

Now i m on the edge of my deadline and i really don t know what to do. I just got off the phone with silhouette and had to edit this post after getting some great help. The left edge of the mat should be aligned with the line and two arrows. However i hope that this guide was helpful just in case you encountered a problem.

Hopefully by now you and your cameo 3 are lean mean cutting machines. One of the most common issues from silhouette cameo beginners is that their cameo 3 autoblade is cutting through the vinyl or other material and the backing. So something i learned rather quickly after ruining 2 pieces of cardstock on my new silhouette cameo. Literally i placed the same sheet 3 different times to see if at least it was cutting off the lines but the cuts were the same the three times but not at all.

The cameo 3 is awesome and shouldn t cause any issues. Following the steps silhouette gave me. I was then cutting like a crazy quilt and making a horrible grinding noise.
