I've been playing with a Craft Robo CC100-20 for a couple days and I've discovered something I thought I'd share.
Sometimes it utterly refuses to find the registration marks. I play with the postion, retry, play with the lighting, retry, reposition on the sheet, retry, but no luck.
What I found works in there cases is to tace over the reg marks (carefully) with a ballpoint pen (and ruler), and it has never once failed to find the mark first try after! The pen ink is a little more reflective than toner or inkjet ink, so I think that may be why.

The other thing is to check and make sure that your registration marks are almost exactly 24.5 cm apart from each other down the long side of the paper, and almost exactly 1cm up from the bottom of the paper. Some printers, for whatever reason, like to autorotate and center the design in the paper, so it "lifts" the registration marks outside of this range. The cutter will look, and look, find one, maybe find two, and then not be able to find three and generate an error.
And for the record his solution with a pen DOES work. Seems to be an inkjet printer problem though; since I got my laser printer, I've never had a problem with that.
