Hi new on here my first question 😊
I’ve been using vinyl cutting with Craft Robo for many years and now want to expand into cut and print! Just bought silhouette cameo 3 and Want to print on Jet Opaque transfer paper.. First question is this best paper to use? Second question my inkjet printed Cannon printer doesn’t seem to print well looks faded!! Can anyone suggest beat inkjet printer to use or settings I need to adjust? All help much appreciated!

@Tees2plz - Welcome to the Make The Cut! software forum, where we assist users with issues using Make The Cut! with a supported cutter. The Cameo 3 is not a supported cutter. So a little clarity:
- the process is print and then cut, not cut and print - "want to expand into cut and print!"
- different inks from different original manufacturers will perform differently on the paper you are using, I haven't heard of Canon being much of a choice for this type of work, I think you will find that non-OEM inks in an Epson, for example, is much more popular, so I would use Epson (I have always used Epson personally, but have also used just about every other printer brand in the market place over the last 30 years of tech support)
- look for Youtube videos on how to use the brand of paper you have, for example, this video:
