Print and Cut vs. The Pixscan Mat - The Ultimate Showdown!

Both the Pixscan mat and the Print and cut feature are used to cut images in Silhouette Studio - but which one is better?? That honestly depends on a lot of variables, so let's walk through the pros and cons together.

I'm making custom hoodies to wear during the total eclipse! This was the perfect project to showcase both methods.

Print and cut's biggest downfall, in my opinion, is the size restriction. The registration marks take up a lot of space on the printed page. The Pixscan mat eliminates this restriction by placing the registration marks on the actual mat, freeing up all of the print area on your paper.

The Pixscan mat, however, adds a few extra steps and quite a bit of time to the project. You want to decide before you start your project which method is going to give you the best overall results.
