I have had some issues with my printer and the registration marks. The biggest issue was that I was loosing a ton of cutting space, in what I am assuming is that my standard desktop printer simply can not print large enough for the capabilities of the Pepakura Viewer program. Below are some tips that might help you if you were having the same problems I was.

First, Pepakura Designer specifications:

Open Designer and go to the print and paper settings. Change settings to how I have mine below. Page should look like second picture.

Second, Pepakura Viewer for Silhouette Cameo specifications:

Open Viewer and go to registration marks. Change settings to how I have mine below. Page should look like second picture.

Next, hit print, then properties. After that, change "Printer Paper Size" from Letter 8.5"x11" to Letter 8.5"x14". Change remaining settings to how I have mine below. When entering the preview, you should see a large gap underneath what you are wanting to print. This is correct.
