Universal Laser Systems X-600 Safety, Installation, Operation, And Basic Maintenance Manual page 44

 Laser engraving or cutting materials other than those described in this manual can be a safety
hazard and can damage the laser system.
Damages to the laser system due to neglect, misuse, or operator error ARE NOT covered under

warranty.
Damage to the laser system due to an inadequate or improper operating environment is

considered abuse and ARE NOT covered under warranty.
In no event will ULS be liable for any damages caused, in whole or in part, by customer, or for any

economic loss, physical injury, lost revenue, lost profits, lost savings or other indirect, incidental,
special or consequential damages incurred by any person, even if ULS has been advised of the
possibility of such damages or claims.
Materials
There are many variables that can affect the cutting and engraving process such as differences in the
thickness of the material, density of the material, composition of the material, and the manufacturing
processes used to make the material.
Please use these settings as a guideline or starting point, in most cases these
settings should work out well, but sometimes may have to be adjusted to
PRINTER DRIVER SETTING TIPS
Power Setting
Higher burns deeper. Too much power sacrifices detail. Has no effect on running time.

Lower burns shallower. Too little power sacrifices detail. Has no effect on running time.

Speed Setting
Higher saves time. Burns shallower and reduces detail.

Lower increases time. Burns deeper but too deep may reduce detail.

PPI Setting
Higher increases the burning or melting effect. Produces finer detail if speed is not too fast. Has

no effect on running time and very little effect on depth.
Lower decreases the burning or melting effect. Reduces image detail if set too low. Has no effect

on running time and very little effect on depth. Very low settings are used to perforate the
material.
Rule of Thumb
 Doubling the power doubles the depth and halving the power halves the depth.
Halving the speed doubles the depth and doubling the speed halves the depth.
