Hey all and thanks for any help in advance. Does anyone have tips or suggestions why my images won’t engrave at all. I have tried multiple png images and edited them in Lightburn with the Adjust image tool and saved them as .png. I put the image on my sd card and onto my laser and when i start it nothing happens, the laser just beeps and won’t start the project. Do i need to save them as something else? I tried exporting them as .png as well with no results.
Hey Bob
If I understand, you place the image in the workspace and run or save the project file to transfer to your laser. You place the image or artwork on the workspace and assign it to a layer. Then, set the layer up to produce the image in one of the modes available. Once configured as you’d like, we recommend using the ‘Preview’ to review the job prior to running.
Our documentation is design to assist with learning all things LightBurn and help with understanding laser work in general. Worth a quick review.
Yes i have done both, Preview and saved file as the right mode. Here are a couple images what i did. It should laser .png correct?
I am not super familiar with using a PNG file in the workflow available from the laser itself, but have you tried to save the project as G-code and run that directly from the laser? This is the most common workflow.
