    Hi! It's so the cricut can properly register the placement of the page before cutting. The rectangle is so I know where to place my sticker page (otherwise the cuts will be off). Hope this helps!

    As others have said the pro 100 does not have pigment inks. I have tested out the pro 300 which has pigment inks and had really great results and they appear to be water resistant from the testing I have done. One thing that's very interesting is cannon has an ink tank printer called the cannon maxify that runs pigment inks. After testing that printer with weatherproof inkjet sticker paper it was very easy to smear the inks with little effort. I'm not too sure if just running pigment inks is the key to waterproof stickers. I think it may also have to do with the quality of the inks and the type of printer. One frustrating thing is the cannon photo printers that run pigment inks are very expensive. I wish the market would expand with pigment ink options as there is definitely a market for it.

    Why do you use a cold press to laminate instead of a hot press?

  • @mooneyesart
    @mooneyesart Жыл бұрын

    Hi Heather, cold press is gentler on the sticker paper, I suppose you can try hot press although it has the potential to ruin the adhesive plus bending the sheet, making it more difficult to place on your mat afterwards.

    Hi Carron, glad you liked the video - I find the Canon pixmas to be very solid for my business (I switched from the pixma pro 100 to the 200 last year). Laser printers, a Brother color laser printer will probably suit your needs and I find they have good quality prints as long as the settings are "high" enough output (600 - 1200 dpi, high resolution). Canon color lasers are good as well!

    Hi! Nope, I just add the laminate and make sure the vinyl sticker paper is waterproof (not just "water resistant"). It should last even through a car wash. Though if you car is in direct sun all the time, it will probably fade in about 8 - 12 months.

    Awesome video! This was extremely helpful! Once you add your laminating sheet what cut setting do you use to cut the stickers? I'm assuming you make them all die cut but if not what setting do you use for die cut and kiss cut?

  • @mooneyesart
    @mooneyesart Жыл бұрын

    Thanks Ling! For the waterproof stickers, I used the Cardstock setting and I edited the material setting so it would be the maximim material thickness. I believe I also used the "More" pressure setting. Since the laminate + sticker paper is quite thick, if you are finding the sticker not cutting through all the way, try a 2x cut. Also blades wear out pretty often cutting through laminate, so I was sharpening it often by poking it into a little ball of tinfoil. To be honest I never did a lot of kiss cut stickers because I had a lot of issues with them. But I will hopefully be able to make a video for it in the future :)

    Hello. I hope you can answer my question. Is it alright if I'm going to put a self-adhesive laminating sheet and just use a roller? 'cause I don't have the cold press machine yet. and is it okay if I'm going to use a matte sticker paper? Not sure if my printer can do a good work with the glossy ones

  • @mooneyesart
    @mooneyesart2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Kimberly, sorry for the late reply! Yes you can def use a roller, I used a roller before I switched to a cold laminate machine. I do recommend the cold laminate machine though as you can apply a part of the adhesive onto one side of the sticker page and then peel off the backing as it's going through the cold press laminate. And yes, matte should be fine but the laminate will make it glossy unless you bought a matte laminate :)

    Good advice all around, but just so people aren’t getting the wrong info: The Pixma Pro 100 actually uses dye ink. The Pro 10 is the model that uses pigment ink. Your stickers are probably waterproof because the dye inks in the Pro 100 are high quality, but pigment ink has more longevity than dye ink. I have the Pro 10 and so far, my stickers are waterproof, too. The Pro 10 was just replaced by the Pixma Pro 300 if anyone is shopping for a high level pigment printer.

  • @mooneyesart
    @mooneyesart2 жыл бұрын

    I was given the wrong info by the company who let me test their paper, but yes you are correct on that info. I've never had any issues with the waterproof abilities of the Pro-100 or Pro-200 as long as the vinyl is indeed "waterproof" and it's laminated afterwards - even for bumper stickers on my car. The Pro 10 is expensive compared to the 100 and 200 which is why I recommend the other models - beginning sticker hobbyists will be fine with a mid range laser printer as well. :)

    Registration mark problems? Simple! Ditch the Cricut and get a 'proper' cutter that doesn't use automatic registration. My old Silver Bullet machine has been deadly accurate at Print & Cut for years now using the laser 'red dot' to line up on the reg marks. Never wasted any materials due to bad registration.

  • @mooneyesart

    The thing about Cricut is, even if their product needs a bit of fiddling, it's the cheapest sticker cutting machine out there. A lot of people are either printing stickers for a side hustle or for fun - so there's no need for an $800+ machine just to cut stickers. However for those making stickers as their main business it does make sense to find a high end cutter.

    Hello 🙏🏼 Thank you for explaining everything so professionally. I have a small doubt that Is clear self adhesive laminating sheet and transparent sticker sheet are same? Will they work same for laminate? And If I stick self adhesive laminating sheet on sticker sheet then Do I have to put it on laminating machine? Will it work the same if I only stick Self adhesive sheet n not doing laminating machine process??? Actually I currently don’t have laminating machine, thought of buying 🤯. I’ll be very grateful if you could clear my doubts 🙏🏼. I literally read all the comments but no one asked that question 🥺

  • @mooneyesart
    @mooneyesart2 жыл бұрын

    Hi there, I believe you are right - the self adhesive laminate is just for laminating the stickers, and the transparent sticker sheet is for printing on (so your stickers will not have a "white" border, rather, a "clear" one). You don't need a laminating machine for this, you can use any plastic card or roller and do it by hand. I find the roller helps and I found a way to peel off the backing while it's going through the roller (less work for me). Sorry for the late reply!
