K40 altering the height of shapes

Today my K40 started distorting shapes. If I try to engrave a 1"x 1" square, my K40 engraves a 1" x 0.75" rectangle. A 1/2" x 1/2 square gives me a 1/2" x 3/8" rectangle
Any shape or image is doing the same.

I have not done any change to the laser. I tried restarting it and also restarted Lightburn and my computer, but the issue remains.

For now, I can still use the laser, but I have to adjust the height of my designs every time so the dimensions of what I am doing are correct. At least the adjustments are easy to calculate since it is always a 4 to 3 ratio.

Any idea how to fix this?

problem solved :slight_smile:

I enabled the rotary roller by mistake (read it on this forum). I just disabled it and everything is working perfectly now
