General instructions relating to ScanNCut:

  1. Always choose the correct mat for your material. The material should stick to the mat securely. Test a small piece on a corner of your mat to make sure you can remove it again without damaging the material. You can find our handy mat and blade guide for ScanNCut DX models here, and the ScanNCut CM models mat and blade guide here.
  2. We recommend that you do a test cut before you cut your design.
  3. Patterns can be transferred to your ScanNCut via USB or WiFi, depending on your model.

Step 1

Download the patterns using the button above and send to your ScanNCut.


Step 2

Place your HTV shiny side down on your ScanNCut mat.


Step 3

If using an offcut of HTV, scan your material and make sure the design fits. Move the design as required.

Step 4

Choose the ‘half cut’ function in the ScanNCut menu.


Step 5

Run a test cut, making sure it doesn’t overlap your design.

Step 6

If you’re happy with the test cut, cut the full design. Remove from mat when finished cutting.

Step 7

Weed your design.


Step 8

Place your HTV onto your fabric and press with the pressing cloth as per manufacturer’s instructions.
