Included UniNet iColor SmartCUT software

What is iColor SmartCUT software ($300 Value!)?

Easily print oversized images on letter/A4 sized printers with UniNet's iColor® SmartCUT software. This ground breaking application turns your letter/A4 sized printer into a tabloid ‘plus’ capable machine, allowing for the splitting and splicing of one graphic across two or more printed transfer sheets. Use any oversized graphic, and the software will split it in half along the most logical path. You can choose to have it split along dark or light areas, depending on the color garment you will be pressing onto. With this software, you can make 3XL shirts that are not possible with even the most expensive of printing systems because you can gang up as many transfer sheets as you want. SmartCUT opens the door for the iColor® 500 to print these common design sizes such as 15” square, as well as plus size garments such as 2X, 3X, 4X. The ability to print designs that properly fill out these large sizes creates the opportunity for high value garments that can fetch a premium price. The software allows owners of A4/Letter sized printers to have the print size benefits of a Tabloid or larger printers.
