My Sainsmart 5500mw blue diode laser will fire but not burn/engrave

Read the paragraph that starts with this:

With GRBL, in variable power mode, if you ask the controller to go faster than it’s allowed to, it will reduce the output power to compensate .

Your maximum speed ($110 and $111) is 500 mm/minute, which is very slow (8.3 mm/sec)
