In this video, I will show you my solution for Cameo 4 registration failing when using holographic and reflective papers.

Step 1: Print your design with registration marks turned on.

Step 2: Use small pieces of WHITE MATTE sticker paper to cover the registration marks. This can be matte sticker paper, adhesive labels or can even be plain printer paper glued or taped over the registration marks.

Step 3: Place the sticker paper into your printer in the correct orientation of your printer. Move the image or design off of the page in Silhouette Designer so that only the registration marks are showing. Reprint the sheet of paper, ONLY PRINTING THE REGISTRATION MARK.

The registration marks are now printed on matte paper, allowing the laser on the cutter to read the marks correct and align the cut.

Step 4: In Silhouette Design Studio add the shape you want to cut out of the sticker paper and send to cut.

The settings I use are Blade Depth: 3 Force:10 Speed:4 Passes:2

These settings will cut through the sticker paper but not the backing. I used these for peel and stick sticker. To cut through the whole sheet set Blade Depth to 4.

Step 5: Watch carefully and make sure the red laser on the machine passed over and scans the registration marks. If the laser is scanning above, below, or to the side of the marks, the registration is not correct and you will get bad results.
