Laser works, but poor quality
Quote from lemiemuse on April 28, 2018, 10:32 pmHi,
I have just set up my new board and when I went to print the laser works, and when I use LightBurn, the laser follows where I point it to. The problem is, that there is poor quality of my laser when I use it. I did a simple line drawing, but the laser looks a little unstable with its movements, and zaps a little sporadically, leaving an image that doesn't look at all like the image I set to print. I am fairly experienced with using the laser with both the original motherboard, and also a Smoothie upgrade that I had, but for some reason I feel that a connection may be off due to the shaky, poor laser quality on my test prints. Does anyone know if these connections are correct? My laser looks a little different than the images given, so something may be off.
Thank you
Giuseppe
