I have watched the video tutorial showing how to use Print and Cut to create alignment marks to break a project into multiple parts. Brilliant feature! But as a noob I have a couple of questions:Am I correct in thinking that the laser must have limit switches so the controller can determine the absolute position of the laser?Assuming this ...

HiSince a few days, Lightburn switches off the positioning laser on my iKier K1 when I run framing. I believe this has been since 1.4.04 release. Was there any change or do you have any idea how to fix this?

I’m just starting my new venture. How do you set up or where do you get your line mode color square usually located at the bottom of lightburn users screen. Thanks for your help. I have been in the computer world for years but am stumped on this little question.

My computer crashed while engraving earlier. Image had a 1 hour 15 minute time estimate. Same engraving this morning was close to that estimate. Trying to burn image this afternoon, estimate is not 1 hour 40 minutes. Laser head doesn’t change speeds when changing settings while doing test burns.Any ideas on what setting(s) need to looked at?

I was wondering if anyone has successfully cut anything with the 5 watt creality laser module attachment not the table and laser, the actual unit that attaches to my 3d printer. If so what speed and how many passes?

Hello all. I hooked up my Ortur Extension to engrave longer pieces and changed my settings but when I hit Frame the laser goes to about the middle right of the project and just stops. Any suggestions? Seems to be only this particular project.

I Recently Added the Falcon laser rotary roller to my 5w laser. According to the instructions that came with it. I had to enter $101=60.375. It then tells me after use to change $101 to 80. What does that mean? Also with the rotary off, and back to normal cutting, my circles are oval. I am assuming i have something wrong and cant figure it out. Nev...

Hey all, I have a halfway decent PC but I notice that when I run other resource intensive programs my laser starts to stutter even though none of my resources are at 100% usage. Just wondering if there’s any setting within Lightburn to give it priority?
