Cricut’s Print Then Cut is a wonderful feature for us crafters, as it lets us print and cut out an image perfectly, but for a long time now we’ve been fenced in by some rather small size limitations. But I have GREAT news! We can now print up to 10.64 by 15.43 INCHES, all the way up to tabloid and A3 size paper! That’s like over 163 square inches of glorious print then cut space. These changes are in a new version of Cricut Design Space for Desktop – version 7.27 – which is now in beta.

So let me show you how to get access the larger print then cut features! Let’s start with this pretty watercolor Easter Egg I made – you can get it free over at jennifermaker.com/473. Now before this update, our size limitation was 6.75” wide by 9.25” tall, which I have this egg sized to fit within right now. If I click the Make It button right now, you’ll see how the egg fits within the registration marks – and while I can move it within this area, you can see there’s a bunch of wasted space here. Clearly, this egg could fill this space MUCH better at the top and the sides. I mean, it looks like this Easter Egg could be as wide as 8 inches wide, but we can’t get it wider! I know this has been frustrating for many of us!

But NOW we have better options! With the updated Cricut Design Space software, the Print Then Cut size has been increased! So I will resize this egg a bit and you can see that it can go a bit bigger! It’s not a lot bigger, but hang in there, because I have more tips on getting it bigger.

First tip – you can make this Easter Egg large enough to fill the available space on your page. To show you how this works, I’ll widen my image to 8 inches. Now when I go to click Make It, I’m still told that my image is too large. But, hang on, let’s check the warning message over in the layers panel – the little red icon. This gives us the option to Auto Resize it to the best size. If I click that, here’s what I get – a bigger Easter Egg that now fits in that whole space! I love it!

So Print Then Cut tip #1 – if you have a shape that you believe could fit into the space better, make it larger on your Canvas, then allow Cricut to Auto Resize it for you to get the MAXIMUM size!! Isn’t that cool? This tip will work for both single images and groups of images you’ve attached!

Change this Easter Egg to way bigger, like 17" tall. That would have been impossible to do before, which was a bummer if you had a printer that could print that large. But now, we have options. When we go to print this, we get a message that says it’s too large, BUT, we can either do an auto-size or we can change our paper size. And look how big we can go! So let’s select 11 x 17" tabloid size.

Tip #2 – choose a larger page size if you have a large-format printer.

If you regularly print these big sizes, you can go into your settings up at the hamburger menu in the top left corner, then click settings, then click Load Type, and change your Print Then Cut Page Size to your typical size. If you change it to 11 x 17, then when you choose the Auto Resize option, it’ll resize to fit.

If you’re new to using these updated Print Then Cut settings, you’ll need to calibrate your Cricut again -- check out my video at jennifermaker.com/calibration

Anyone can try out the new features in beta by opening Cricut Design Space, clicking the hamburger menu in the upper left corner, selecting Settings, and choosing “Beta” under Application Experience, then click Done.
