Cutting and framing circle issue (sculpfun S9 )

[Lixa]

Hi all, I have a Sculpfun S9 and I am running into an issue that happens when I want to cut or frame a curved line, happens with the circle framing button, and also circles and curved lines cutting in general, when actioned for cutting a circle, the laser does a lot of erratic movements and not making the circle shape at all but a lot of random short movement in a circular way, which is not the case of straight line (squares) at all. Am I missing something in the setting le ? or am I doing something wrong ?

Sorry about my question, i am still discovering the machine and the settings for both cutting and engraving.

Thank you.

Jagged edges no matter what, Using Lightburn on Lenovo desktop and Windows 8

Guys I need help, I have a Genmitsu Jinsoku LC-40 Laser Engraver, 5.5W and no matter what I do all the edges on any cut is jagged, I don’t know if I have to change anything or not please help. When ever I’m going to cut a circle or anything, the laser follows the path of the cut but instead of straight lines or curves all I get is jagged and very zig zaggy cuts [315768107_10225438489846773_528557899728893487_n] [315845177_10225438483006602_7613468530722749455_n]

Then you should download & install a legit copy from the Official Site, plus run a malware check on your PC to ensure you didn’t install anything unexpected.

If it’s not that problem, pictures will let us see what you see.

Seems to be a double post. But as mentioned in the other one, you are most likely using a pirated version of LB. Make sure you bought a valid license at the official homepage only.

I’d like to play a hunch… Did you download the latest trial version from our website? Occasionally an error can persist from previous software attempts. You may have something like this going on.

Type cd … (cd then a space then two periods) for Change Directory, that will move you closer to C:\…
