Cutter does work on the H series without laser upgrade, their marketing is a bit unclear. What you dont get is the "birds eye camera" to scan the work surface and overlay cut out locations onto in software, you're flying a bit more blind sorta speak relying mostly on measurements for many materials.

Printed stuff adds locating targets that the nozzle camera scans for. Although it doesnt scan too intelligently, just somewhat within the expected region according to paper size rather than letting you place it anywhere on the bed. Not sure if the "birds eye camera" changes that much.

I guess your phone takes the place of that camera for the A2L, probably makes more sense for the average person who cares for such a feature.
