Sorry for resurrecting this thread, but I've been looking at one of these for a long time and never really understood the 'carrier' thing - now that so many of you have one, maybe you can tell me?!
The brochure says "The Lite will cut only with a carrier sheet: there's no option as with the CC-200 to cut backed media without one. However you can still cut vinyl with it." What does this carrier do? How is other backed media different from vinyl?
