ScanNCut DX Mat Loading Issue

The ScanNCut DX Mats and the mat loading issue have been discussed quite a bit.  Last week Brother released an official statement about it:

A Notice to Our Consumers Regarding the ScanNCut DX Mat Loading Issues

The Brother team took this to heart because we work to provide unique features and improve product functionality based on what customers want. We are at your side as you use our products to transform your vision into creative crafts and projects.

Need a new mat? If your ScanNCut DX mats were purchased between August 1, 2018 and October 31, 2018, Brother is offering you a new mat free of charge. Customers may contact the Brother Customer Service Department at 877-BROTHER (1-877-276-8437) or visit Brother at https://www.brother-usa.com/brother-support for additional contact details.

After you get your new mat, please tag our social handles @BrothercraftsUSA and share your latest project! The Brother team would love to see them. Please also visit https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sX-xl2Fkxtg for proper mat feeding instructions.

Regards,
The Brother Crafts Team

I hope that this will help solve your mat feeding issues!  I'll leave you with a project I made this weekend with my ScanNCut DX:

Corkfabricclutch-wm
It's a clutch made from cork fabric (the silver, leather-like material) and batik fabric (the red and white fabric in the rose).  I love how it turned out and I love how easy the AutoBlade on my ScanNCut DX makes all of my cutting projects!  (And don't worry, instructions for this project will be available on the upcoming season of Make It Artsy.)

Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. I am a paid spokesperson for the Brother ScanNCut.  It is a machine that I love and use.  All projects and opinions are my own.

  • I purchased my machine when it was the Today’s Special in March and I just started having mat loading issues this week. Does that mean I’m out of luck since it doesn’t fall in the time frame given?

  • I previously had the mat issue and had the mat replaced. The issue had gone away for months and just started again in this last week. It has mangled 2 of my mats! Anyone else having trouble again?

  • Its likely the wrong scanning mat for your machine.  If you have a DX machine, it must be a DX mat.  If you have a ScanNCut 1 or 2 it must be a SNC 1 or 2 mat.

  • Hi there. I purchased my machine a few months ago. I have been using it constantly. Lately the mat feeds in crooked, pulling to the left. Also I hand started to cut stencils and I do a test cut and it cuts unevenly on the left hand side of the mat.
    Any suggestions?
