I cannot get my Jiccoda Laser Engraver to actually cut anything. I finally got it to connect to the computer and show up as a device. Now when I try and send something to cut I get an error message saying “there was a problem sending data to the laser. The machine may be busy or paused”
Please help. I’ve spent hours trying to resolve this.
Is there any additional information displayed in the Console area of LightBurn? Typically the error occurs when there’s either the wrong port selected, a faulty USB connection (remove any USB extenders or hubs, if possible) or when another laser software is maintaining control of the laser.
Movement is great! Is the blue coloured laser light shining? If so, you’re most likely just out of focus. The manual that came with your laser should give you instructions on how to do this, if needed.
If you’re not getting any laser light, it could be because your laser’s power is set far too low, or there may be a wiring issue that’s preventing power from getting to the diode.
