The world first home and hobby cutting machine with a built-in scanner -giving you the ability to scan almost anything you can get your hands on and place into the machine to cut out.  The ScanNCut machine is an electronic cutting machine with a built-in 300dpi scanner and enables the user to scan in their own image as a pattern and then have the machine cut the pattern out on fabric, paper, or cardboard at the touch of a few buttons, in addition to having hundreds of built-in patterns in the machine to choose from.  We got a hold of the CM550DX and it comes with a whole range of accessories to get you started including two different types of blades, marker pens (you can switch the blades out for the markers and draw patterns or seam allowances onto fabric), spare cutting mats, contact-paper and a number of project books.  It looks like a pretty desktop inkjet printer and sounds a bit like one, too. • Brand: Brother • Model: CM550DX • 3.7 LCD Touch Screen • Light Weight • Easy to Operate • High speed USB Slot • 3 viewing angle • Scan Speed: 30 sec/mat • Scan Resolution: 300Dpi
