xTool has introduced the C1 Colour Cutter, a multifunctional desktop machine designed to combine inkjet printing and cutting processes. It aims to eliminate material waste and alignment errors by performing multiple craft steps in a single sequence.
Why it matters
The device simplifies multi-step craft projects by consolidating separate printing and cutting tasks, which helps users avoid common errors in project assembly. It supports a variety of materials including cardstock, leather, and wood.
The basic C1 model is priced at A$779, with Australian customers eligible to reserve units for a A$15 deposit. The system supports blades up to 3mm and creates textile prints designed to withstand 30 home washes.
The players
xTool

The details
Equipped with Contact Image Sensor technology, the machine allows users to generate full-scale material previews before cutting. The integrated printing system uses waterproof and fade-resistant Duraproof ink for diverse craft surfaces.
Timeline
October 28, 2026: xTool officially launched the C1 Colour Cutter machine.

Culture Shift
The C1 Colour Cutter signals a shift toward all-in-one manufacturing solutions that compete with the established Cricut desktop cutting ecosystem. By integrating printing and cutting, xTool aims to redefine the workspace requirements for modern DIY creators.
