Is it required for use on the Cricut Expression II in order to use the "Simple holiday Cards" cartridge?

Yes that particular cartridge DOES take a universal overlay. Some of the newer ones are requiring universal over lays now. I hope this helps. If you need anything else, feel free to ask :)

I have the Cricut Expression and it works fine. But I think it said on the Sure Cute A Lot web site that they changed the programs where they will not work with newer cricuts. Sorry I hope this helped.

This was purchased as a Christmas gift so we haven't tried it out. But through research I have found out that the cartridges are compatible with all the systems.

Great for card making. If you cut using the Cricut, make sure you set it for heavy cardstock and at least 2 cuts.

You can use any paper. There are 2 dif. trays. I use it for t-shirt transfers, invoices, templates, shipping labels. I use it with every kind & size of paper. HP actually has another model that has a 5th ink cartridge and is better suited to photographs.

Hi - wasn't sure, still not positive. Went back and found some greeting cards from 2009, using version 20, and they worked OK, others did not. But I've been using one form or another of 23 for many years and going strong. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Also should mention that I have a copy of my old Windows XP virtual installed (when I bought this PC which used Windows 7) just so my Print 23 would work. It works on both.

Nothing special is required. You can use standard ink cartridges or a regular laser printer as well (which is what I've used most often).

I'm not sure why a cartridge is needed. Everything we needed was already included in the part we purchased.

If you purchase the software you will be able access the online libraries and purchase the new graphics that are coming out. Right now the cartridges can be purchased cheaply because they are being phased out, About $40.00 is the regular price. It might be handy to purchase some of the fonts or general holiday themed ones that you can have on hand. The machines coming out soon will not have the handheld controller and graphics and fonts will need to be purchased online and stored on your computer. The machines coming out this summer will have a wireless function. So - to answer your question - definitely purchase the software since cartridges are being phased out. I recommend your looking at the cartridges to determine which fonts and/or graphics will be most useful to you and if you can get them on sale, go for it. Scoring works great. There may be an adjustment needed depending on your card stock, but the directions help you through that.

I don't think it is available anymore only the explore has one. You might contact Cricut direct and ask them. Sorry I am sure that isn't what you wanted to hear

No, you cannot upload your own fonts or designs. You must purchase Cricut cartridges, and are limited to what they contain.

Universal keyboard overlay is used when there isn't an overlay in the cricut package. It is comprised of english alpha's and numerics. Those alpha's and numerics correspond to the pictures in the cricut cartridge picture booklet. The overlay isn't expensive, (under $5.00) and it can be used with all cricut cartridges that have number and/or alpha.

Yes it does. You can use it to cut fonts from your computer also. The cord helps expand the things your use of the Cricut.

Yes, if you set it up properly. It will take any size paper. I even print envelopes with mine... greeting cards too. For my sister's birthday I put one of her watercolors on the front of the card. It will let you know if it's not set up right too. HAVE FUN! It's a great printer! (deb)

No. There was a lawsuit a few years ago between provocraft and make the cut and sure cuts a lot. These software companies can no longer make their software to use with cricut. Try Silhouette cameo. It a great machine and you can use whatever software you like and don't need cartridges.

Yes, you can use anything. My daughter ran out of the included paper & now uses plain printer paper
