I don't have a cameo, but I do know that you have to be printing from within SCAL...while scal is open use that FILE and PRINT...you can not print from your regular printing program window.

Let us know how it goes.

Would that be 3 point laser print & cut? If so have you calibrated the laser?

Hi,

Thank you so much for your prompt responses! I did use the print function from scal 3 and my printer is an inkjet printer. Do you know what else I can try?

Thanks!

I tried calibrating the Cameo and I'm happening difficulty with it. I'm having difficulty understanding the instructions. I'm truly a newbie to this and needs to spend more time understanding the machine. But thank you for all your suggestions! :D
