Solid-state lasers produce a rectangular spot, not the nice circular one you’re thinking of, so the narrowest cut will be different in the X and Y directions.
Stripping paint off copper will require testing to find the ideal combination of speed & power. A few Material Test

But you’re off to a good start!
