NOTE
The T500 print driver cannot store more than 16 pen colors or different laser parameter
settings per file.
Speed (Pen Page)
The speed slider controls the laser's speed during operation (engraving speed) with settings ranging from
0.1 – 100%.Only when moving in straight line with enough distance, the carriage can achieve 100% speed.
On the other hand, the machine will automatically slow down when processing curves so the speed %
indicator only presents maximum speed % that laser can achieve but not equal to actual laser carriage
moving speed. It is exactly like driving a car on a straight road, you can driver faster and on a curve road
you have to slow down.
Laser pulse frequency is controlled by the speed setting for vectors and it is opposite to pulse width,
meaning higher speed setting for vectors, lower pulse width, and thus less cutting capability. Not only
speed% setting affects actual processing time but also the job size, complexity of the graphic and the
position of the graphic in the working area.
Power (Pen Page)
The power slider controls the laser's power during operation (engraving/cutting power) with a range setting
from 0 – 100%. The percentage setting represents the power for each laser pulse fired. The lower the
power setting, the shallower it engraves or cuts, and vice-versa
