Before you can start cutting your paper with the Silhouette Cameo 3, you’ll need to prepare the materials you want to cut. First, measure and mark out the size and shape of the paper you want to cut.

Once your material is ready for cutting, it’s time to launch Silhouette Studio®, the software used to operate your Silhouette Cameo 3. Open a new document in Silhouette Studio® and then load your image onto the workspace. When designing your project in Silhouette Studio®, be sure to select “no mat” as your media type so that your cuts are not constrained by an existing mat.

When you’ve finished designing your project in Silhouette Studio®, it’s time to send it over to your Cameo 3 for cutting. Select “Send” from the menu bar at the top of your screen and then select “Silhouette CAMEO” as your printer. Your project will be sent wirelessly over to your machine where you can adjust any necessary settings like blade depth or pressure.

Finally, when all of your settings have been adjusted properly on your machine, click “Send” at the bottom of the screen again. The machine will begin cutting out the design according to all of its settings.

Conclusion: Cutting paper on a Silhouette Cameo 3 is easy once you know how! All it takes is some preparation beforehand and knowing how to use Silhouette Studio® correctly. Once everything is set up correctly on both software and hardware sides, simply send over your project from Silhouette Studio®, adjust any necessary settings on the machine itself, and watch as it expertly cuts out whatever design you’ve created!
