I absolutely dread using this machine.
I hate using my Silhouette Portrait. I run an Etsy shop where I sell stickers and thankfully I don't sell that many because I dread using this machine. First I have to pray that everything prints correctly, then I have to pray that the laminate goes on perfectly, and last I have to sit here with frustration just boiling hoping that this two hundred dollar machine will do its job.
I can't tell you how many times I turn it on and off because the registration marks just straight up don't work. So I try the manual registration and take your guess! And if the heavens are aligned and it actually does its job and starts cutting, it doesn't even match up to its design! It cuts nowhere. where. it. is. supposed. to. Everything is on manual and the manual mode doesn't even work. Even my blade is set to manual.
I want to return my machine and get a new one so bad but their warranty sucks and they would probably just have me in long drawn out threads talking to their tumbleweed customer support.
I'm so frustrated.
