I've seen those at CHA trade shows and they "appear" as though they may work ok with the CE5000-40 (CraftROBO Pro). This cutting plotter is pretty forgiving. Some claim to make their own carrier sheets.

It's called a carrier sheet. It's got a sticky surface just like a post-it note where you can stick your paper on. When you're using the machine to die-cut material you have to use a carrier film because otherwise you'll damage the machine.

Actually, there is some kind of vacuum cleaner inside. It sucks down the media to keep it perfectly flat. A lot of the larger ink jet printers are also using this method nowadays.

Why does this thing sound like a vacuum every time it's working?

[trixx25]

what was the clear thick backing that you pulled away from the printed material?
