After you have become a proficient user of the laser system, you should tune your system.

From then on, tune only when necessary. Since different materials may require different tuning

settings, you may customize up to three settings based on the type of materials that you

process most often.

Raster Engraving Tuning (Steps 1-4)

A symptom of a system that needs "Tuning" is when you get a slight double imaging when

printing small text or characters that appear “fuzzy”. The process of tuning your raster

engraving is very similar to how Hewlett Packard ink jet printers calibrate their print heads. A

file is sent from the driver, you visually analyze the result, choose the straightest line, and then

enter in the corresponding letters into the driver to complete the calibration. Here is how it

works for the laser system:

Step 1: To create a custom setting other than the factory default setting, click on the button next

to the name. We will use Custom 1 as an example. After clicking on Custom 1, click on Modify.

Type in a new Setting name instead of Custom 1. We recommend using the name of the type of

material (at least 5“ x 5” square) that you are “tuning”. In this example, we will use “Plastic” to

represent microsurfaced engraving plastic.

Step 2: Enter the power setting that you use on this material if you were to raster engrave it at

100% Speed. Make sure the laser system is ON, your material is loaded and focused. Position

the top of your 5” x 5”(minimum) material at (0x, 0y).

Step 3: Make sure that your laser system is ON as

well as your exhaust blower. Click “Send Test File”

and in less than one minute a file will be automatically

transferred to your laser system. Proceed to run this

file by pressing “Start” in the laser system’s control

panel. The run time on this file takes about 15

minutes or less. Once the engraving is complete, you

should get an image that looks something like the

diagram to the right.

Step 4: When the test file is complete, remove your

material from the machine. Visually inspect the

sample and choose one line from each zone that

appears the straightest. Locate the letter above each

line for each zone and enter that letter into the

respective location in the driver. In the above example it so happens that for all 10 zones (0-9),

the lines under each letter “K” are the straightest. So in the driver, I would enter a “K” for each

zone. Sometimes it may stagger such as “N,N,O,O,P,P,P,O,O,O” for example. After you enter

in all 10 zones (0-9), make sure that you click “OK” to save the changes. If not, the Printer

Driver will revert back to the “Default” settings.

If you would like to “Tune” your laser system to other materials, simply repeat this process and

engrave the “Tuning” file on that particular material. These settings are retained in the driver

permanently until you modify them again or you delete and re-install the Printer Driver.
