User questions & answers
Question: | Is there a led switch to keep the Cameo 4 buttons on |
Answer: | I am almost positive that it will do the job. I use mine to trim excess some very dense (MOHS hardness 9) rocks. If you have a Dremel took you can cut your material with inch to inch one half for a lot less. |
Question: | I'm new to these machines, pardon my ignorance -- does my computer require Bluetooth to connect to the machine? I don't have Bluetooth on my laptotop |
Answer: | Yes, but we highly encourage using a GFCI outlet. |
Question: | Does this package contain pen holders for sketching |
Answer: | No, it does not come with a holder. It is very difficult to get hurt when you run a diamond blade with water, which is what this saw requires. |
Question: | I just bought this for my daughter and she says that it does not run on Windows? Is this. true |
Answer: | Yes, you can use water with this blade and machine. We actually recommend using water vs. oil because it's cleaner to work with. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Does the Ultimate Accessory Bundle come with the auto blade |
Answer: | 1/16" No good for router guide |
Question: | Is the handbook digital or a paper copy |
Answer: | You can |
Question: | Does this item works with 220v |
Answer: | No. This template is rounded off for making a 2’ x 3’ flag dimension with 2” stripes or 19-1/2” x 36 with 1-1/2” stripes. |
Question: | I'd like to use this machine outside the us (israel), where the local voltage is 220. does this come in 220v, or will i need a voltage converter |
Answer: | I put spray adhesive on the back of the stencil (3M super 77) and the best paint I have found is (rust-oleum primer 285001 universal bonding primer) Spray lightly every 30 minuets. It dries very fast and does not run. I have tried many. This works great for me. When I finis I use spar urethane finish which seals the primer |

User questions & answers
Question: | How does it match up with the print outs on my paper to accurately cut out what is printed? Or is that not something it can do |
Answer: | There are two ways that you can "print and cut". One is by using a special new mat called the PixScan that is available for it, and an app that goes with it on your phone. With that you can cut around anything...it doesn't have to be something you printed from the Silhouette software. It can be a stamped image, or handwriting, or whatever. The other way is by creating the file in Silhouette's Design Studio software and then adding registration marks to your document before printing it. The machine reads these to orient itself on the paper when you feed the paper into the Portrait to cut. |
Question: | Can you use 8 1/2" paper even if it only cuts 8" or would you need to trim your paper to |
Answer: | I have put 8 1/2 by 11 paper on the mat. You just cannot see all the numbers on the side but you do not have to cut it to 8 inches. Hope this helps. I absolutely love my Silhouette and I still do not even know how to use have of the items yet. |
Question: | Will the software that comes with this print .ai files? Is there other software that will print out designs for this printer |
Answer: | Not the software that comes with it. However you can buy Silhouette Connect software for $40 which allows you to cut directly in Adobe Illustrator. Would highly recommend using that program if you know Illustrator. |
Question: | What will the Cameo do that the Portrait will not do |
Answer: | I had purchased the Portrait, but found I was limited on what I could create since it's width is just 8 inches wide. Most of the paper or vinyl I wanted to use with the Portrait were at least 8 1/2 inches wide. So I bought the Cameo and I'm very happy with it. Other than the width limitation, they both operate the same way. |

User questions & answers
Question: | This mat is listed as a prime item which is 2 day shipping but the description says it usually ships in 9-12 weeks. clarification on shipping time |
Answer: | Without actually measuring it, one of my customer's that loves the products believes it is 45 degrees. |
Question: | Is this item shipped flat? If it is curved or folded, it affects the cutting |
Answer: | Yes! I have a silhouette SD and this blade works for it. |
Question: | this mat works with came |
Answer: | The combo pack is for a blade and a cutting mat, but it is still overpriced. You can buy them about $5 cheaper adding them to the cart separately. |
Question: | Can I buy the 24-inch one and cut it in half so I get two 12-inch mats? Seeing the price both is about the same |
Answer: | It really depends on how much you use it and how detailed your cuts are. When I first started using mine, I cut a lot of doilies and the blade didn't last as long. I no longer cut doilies, so now I'm only on my 2nd blade since 2012 and I use my Silhouette Cameo almost every day. Hope this helps! |

Question: | Can this machine be used with a cell phone or does it need to be used with a computer |
Answer: | They slide together. One end has a kind of wave shape that is doubled back on itself and the counterpart is only one layer. Be VERY careful when assembling them as the they are very sharp and you will cut yourself even when taking care. Best to use gloves and that makes it even harder to assemble. They do work great once together...but I ended up just using painter's tape to hold them together and on the crates I was marking. |
