commercial cutting machines that will align to registration marks placed there with a printer
how to align our laser printer to registration marks
You need to do two things:
- use a scanner to locate the exact position of the registration marks
- create a laser-cutter jig, that will let you precisely position the paper in the laser cutter

Actually, I really like the pin-hole idea here. The jig would have pin-holes along the top side, and left side. The pins would be facing down (because the lasercutter bed has holes in it, the pins should be able to face downwards). This would allow you to skip the scanner step.
