LightBurn 2.1: Quick Nest, Enhanced Camera Support, Undo History, and more

Initial EZCad3 Support

This one has been years in the making — LightBurn now supports EZCad3-based Galvo lasers.

Our initial support provides the same level of control that we have for EZCad2-based lasers — all standard marking options, rotary control, and split marking.

We also support Z Axis jogging for EZCad3 based lasers, and we will add support for automatic Z stepping during jobs in a future update.

It’s important to note that EZCad3 support is a “Labs” feature in LightBurn 2.1. That means we’ve done lots of testing in house to make certain it’s ready to go public, but we also know it needs a bit more polish before it’s complete. Please use with care, and report any unexpected results on our forum or by email.
