If I have paper that measures 12x12 inches will I be able to trim off only 1/8 or 1/4 inch?

I'd say yes, if you register the paper carefully and hold down on the bar and don't have too many layers to cut. It's sharp and accurate. Very precise. An eighth of an inch? I suppose.... I got this for my son, for origami and it was really a great and fine tool. it would also be good for making paper chains, for Christmas, that sort of thing. You can get new roller blades too if you wear one out. I guess I'd say you won't have a problem, it's a very good product, very Euro design....

The 12" x 12" paper will just fit onto the surface of the cutting board, so it is possible that at one end the cutter might not cut the tip. To cut thin slices, the less you stack the paper the better. Cutting 1/8" off of a single sheet should not be a problem. Cutting 1/4" is assured. It takes a bit of practice (5-6 cuts) to get good at it.

Hi, Yes the flat bed measures 12 tall and the cutting edge will accommodate a 12 inch paper. I would think that to cut off 1/8 - 1/4 it would be wise to pre-mark the two edges(top and bottom) to get an accurate cut

The measurement for the drawers is 2-3/4" x 10-1/2" x 14-1/2", so no, 12" x 12" paper will not be able to lay flat.

Yes, the scanner bed is 11"x17" so you can scan documents up to that size. You can make reduced size copies, but keep in mind that 11"x17" and 8.5"x11" are not the same proportionally. From 11" down to 8.5" is a reduction to 77% ; from 17" down to 11" is a reduction to 65%. You can reduce a Tabloid size document down to Letter size, but you will gain white space in the process.

The 1/4 sheets are only approx. 8" X 11" Mine covered a 9" top of a cake and then I used one to cut in 3rds to wrap around the cake as my cake was only approx. 2 1/2 tall.

You need to buy sandpaper. Buy standard full size sheets and you can cut it into four pieces. That's usually much cheaper than buying the precut 1/4 sheet paper.

I just measured mine--it is 5 x 7. So, if you indeed have 6 x 8, I would suggest making sure that you select to print 5x7, centered on 6x8. then you can trim 1/2" on each side, if necessary.

You'll get a very thin border that you can trim- but you need to "fool" it into thinking that by printing a "custom" size paper in the manual options. Also, the legal size setting requires certain PAPER type settings- no matter what paper you use- just let it print for the highest quality.

I agree. It's always a good rule of thumb to go the next size up when you're working with same size. I'm sure it would be fine to use 9x12, but I don't know about thickness. If it's card stock kind of quality, I think 9 x12 would be fine. But if your paper has a thicker quality than that, I would recommend going the next size up.

My calipers put it at less than 1/64 off, if any, in the direction of being too small. 1 paper inch is between 1 real inch and 63/64 real inches. Works for LSAT logic games, Dungeons & Dragons notes, and remedial Geometry, which is what I use it for, but I might not want to design NASA's next-gen orbiter on it.

You don't feed the entire roll. You can cut it to any length up to 11" long, making it the same size as standard paper, if that's the maximum size that your printer will handle. You save on waste, by being able to cut smaller lengths, as necessary. I usually print my design out in a trial run, in greyscale, or draft mode, on regular paper, to see how large the design is, then cut the fabric appropriately. Hope this answers your question.

I used every size from 1/4" to 1". Just buy whatever thickness you need for your booklet. For a larger booklet with lots of pages, you will still have to punch the pages a few at a time.

The width of the strip is 1/8". Hope that helps. I love mine but I only do one piece of paper at a time.

Yes we did cut 8.5 x 14 inch paper. Didn't have a problem although we just did it as a test in getting use to machine. A someone stated earlier, we also cut short edge.

You can trim the edges, but leave about 1/4 inch around the document itself.

I don't know about those specific sizes. We also had some odd sized envelopes. We had to find paper which was "close" and then adjust the margins. It was fiddly but it worked (while the printer was still working that is).

You can definitely trim closer to the item you laminated. Personally, I go to about 1/8 of an inch away when laminating normal pieces of paper (in terms of thickness). You could conceivably arrange several items in one larger laminating envelope and then cut them apart, as long as you leave at least 1/4" between them. Once you laminate the object you will be able to clearly see where the sheet is melted completely and thereby determine where you can trim closer. Hope this helps!

I don't really know since I have the Cricut Expression but I imagine that you would be very limited in the size you can make. You need the 12 x 12 paper to make what amounts to a 4 inch square box. And for the cupcake boxes to actually fit a cupcake. I don't see how you could cut out many of the items with the 6 x 12 paper.
