The Graphtec Silhouette is a powerful and sturdy machine. It can handled many jobs, yet it is still small enough to fit on a desktop. It is so easy to use that within minutes of familiarizing yourself with the device, you'll be cutting out things in no time! The Silhouette is sixteen inches long by 5.5 inches deep and 4.5 inches tall - smaller than most inkjet printers - and only weighs 4.5 lbs. Don’t be deceived by its small size. It can handle media up to 11 inches wide by more than 1 yard long, with a cutting area of 8 inches wide by 39.4 inches in extended mode.
The Silhouette is perfect for the average hobbyist. It is portable, and you can even use it without your computer! Simply design your layout in the included Robo Master Software and save onto an SD memory card, like the ones found in a digital camera, which then fits securely in the side of the Silhouette. Take it to a friend's house and leave the computer at home. Once the card is inserted, you can scroll through the data right on the unit's LCD screen and cut away!
With features typically found on machines that cost much more, the Silhouette is a great cutter for first-timers, but engineered to satisfy professionals. Perfect for scrapbooking, stickers, decals, t-shirt transfers, postcards and more! It also comes with the software needed to design what you're going to cut. Silhouette Studio is compatible with PCs (Windows XP/Vista/7) and Macintosh (OSX 10.5.8 and higher). Silhouette Studio software allows the creation of original designs using various shape and drawing tools. It can also import clipart and bitmap files to aid the creative process. Silhouette Studio is perfect for vinyl signs, print and cut stickers and decals from desktop printers, scrapbooking, card applications and various apparel decoration applications. Silhouette Studio also has a direct link to the Silhouette online design library with thousands of original vector artwork for download.
