Loading silhouette cameo 3 mat.

This is going to be how we load most material into our silhouette machine. I like to cut most of my vinyl without a mat because the majority of the time i am using rolls of vinyl instead of. If you are cutting media without using a cutting mat select none in the cutting mat options. Make sure the arrow on the top of the mat is pointing into the machine.

Your machine will roll your mat into the cutting area. Do you have a cameo 2 or cameo 3. There is no load media button on the machine only load and unload buttons. Now select load on your cameo 3.

The cameo 3 load options are determined by which mat is specified in the design page settings of the silhouette studio software. Place the vinyl on the correct size of mat you have selected in the silhouette software. Select load cut mat from the display. Line up your mat with the colored line and then load your mat.
