Cut lines and print images are different types of information. 


While viewing your job in Silhouette Studio, you will see a mixture of both print and cut information on your screen.


When sent to your printer, only print information will be seen by the printer. This includes printing the registration marks.


When sent to your Silhouette cutting machine, only the cut lines will be seen by the cutting machine.

NOTE: Though the Silhouette cutting machine does read the registration marks, it does not view them to cut.
