Is there a wireless adapter for my Cricut Expression 2 machine?
At one time, Cricut did manufacture a wireless adapter for the Expression 2 machine so that you could connect it to your computer wirelessly when using the Cricut Craft Room software. However, this item was discontinued due to low demand, and the Cricut Craft Room software was shut down on July 16, 2018. Cricut does not currently manufacture a wireless adapter for the Expression 2 machines.
Important: The Wireless Bluetooth adapter that Cricut currently manufactures is configured for the Explore family of machines, and will not fit into the port on the Expression 2 machines.
