- A tutorial on how to accurately re-cut a file that's been moved, using Print and Cut to register the output from LightBurn to line up the second run. (This is showing the new Print & Cut Wizard in version 1.0)
The laser used in this video is an Aeon Mira 7. To learn more about it, click here: aeonlaser.us/?... - Věda a technologie
This tool has been moved to the 'Laser Tools' Tab in Lightburn. Not your fault, it was like this when you made the Video, there was no 'Laser Tools' Tab then- just updating for anyone who might be confused.
You might pin this comment or make one of your own so that this Video is still accurate. You could also add an annotation comment in the Vid at the timestamp ( 3:17 ish) which could note the corrected tool location. Excellent Video, it still works exactly the same- it's just been reorganized/moved to a different location.
Thank you! I found it when I searched in the help menu, but there seems to be a bug where and arrow points off screen.
Thanks for the tip 👌🏼
Once again, I am amazed at the thought and features put into this product (Lightburn). My fervent wish and hope is that Lightburn expands into the world of vinyl cutters and CNC machines to spread its magic to those poor souls. I have an old Roland Vinyl Cutter that's built like a tank and will last into the next millennium, but whose creators have forsaken with no driver updates for newer versions of Windows. Lightburn to the rescue (all fingers and toes crossed)?
I am amazed how logical and perfect this product is - thanks, Jason!!! You get 11 out of 10 stars for your work.
LB Team just never stops making a great program even better- Congrats again!
This is pure brilliance. Wow. What an amazing feature. I'm so glad I purchased this software! Well done.
This is why I love you guys. Going for lightburn was a one of the best decision I have made for my laser cutting business
I use three different platforms (unfortunately). Currently use Lightburn (by far favorite), EZCad (UV Galvo - can't wait for Lightburn Support) and the absolute worst, FSL RE3 (all on separate machines).
Thank you, Jason! I echo all the compliments on this thread. I just ran across this tutorial a couple weeks ago & I'm so thankful I had this little nugget of knowledge tucked away. I had to attempt my first "rescue mission" this evening. On my first try, I got an error (my fault as I had placed my piece just barely outside the cut boundaries). Once the placement was corrected the process worked flawlessly. You do an excellent job on your tutorials and I sure admire your attention to detail in the creation, maintenance and advancement of Lightburn software. Kudos to you & your team (if you have one ;) )!!
WoW. This saves lots of material and weeding time in addition to saving a project. Thank you for such a well thought program!
Perfect and complete explanation!
That is incredible! I am amazed. Such a useful solution to a common problem. Thank you!
woooow! nadie lo explica mejor que tu, vi varios videos y solo me quedo claro con tu explicacion, Excelente video, muchas gracias por tus aportes, bendiciones.
Best tidbit of info for a relative newbie... EVER !! Thanks So Much
Thank you, savior, you are really a reference
Your follower from Saudi Arabia
This alone is worth the price of admission. Excellent work as always.
OMG! I've needed this a couple times but did not know it was possible. THANK YOU!
I've come back to reference this video so many times. Don't know why I can't remember the steps. Lol thank you for it!
Thank you so much. Didn’t even know we had this feature!
Lovely software. This really saved me today from blowing a gasket. Thank you
You safe me an acrylic job for $80 dollar that I was ready to put it in the waste bin,, my question is how to slow the jog speed.? Thank you so much.
Thanks guys! Just saved a job for me today. Took me 2 tries but it works great.
So glad I saved this video when I did!! I ended up changing something, but it does come in handy!
It saved me a botched job today. Thank you!
This feature saved me with a big shop. Thanks!’
Very impressive, so glad I have Lightburn in my arsenal!
That is very helpful to fix up mistakes as well as finish incomplete files, thank you!
Manny thanks for sharing this function.
Really amazing process and final result is top.
This is a feature that is totally new to me. I must try this. Thanks!!!
Lol duh that's all I can say I have used print and cut but never this way. Great video and thank you.
3:05. The red indicator doesn’t “dim”, it just doesn’t reflect as brightly from the already burned area.
so what you're saying is the laser brightness isn't as high... aka it's dimmed 🤦♂️😂
Great. Thank you for adding. Love LB. Get better and better 😍
Great feature, Thank You so much.
This is awesome! This will save me a lot of reject projects!
This came at absolutely the best time! Thank you so much!!!
still AMZING software , especially for that price. worth EVERY penny imho
This is awesome, thanks for adding this!
I love LB so much. This is great. Thank you!
Love lightburn thanks for the updates
Thank you for this! You just saved a job for me!
What a great feature!! Thanks for doin' that.
thats a great new feature!
Very Cool, I can think of several uses for this.
Thats a really great Feature ! Love it!
How awesome is this!!! Thanks guys!
Wow, a great feature addition.
Great feature Oz!
Thank you!
Thanks for making this video. It’s very useful!
Great video!! Question: let’s say I have a cut that has multiple pieces and most of them cut except for two. Would it be possible to use this feature then select “only cut selected graphics” to cut just those two pieces that didn’t cut completely?
Yes, Cut Selected Graphics still works when using Print & Cut.
OMG this is genius! 😍😍
Amazing feature!
Thank you SO much for the video!
I was at a loss when this happened to me earlier today! Now, I know what to do next time! Thanks!!! Also… were you cutting cardboard?!
Awesome, thank you! I wish I knew about this a few days ago 😫. I guess you could use a low powered test fire to dial in the alignment precisely if you don't have a red dot pointer?
Thank you so much for this.
Awesome feature!
How do you change jog speed? This is awesome!
Great Video....usefull...thanks
Great video. My question is does the laser has to be set up on user origin, current position, or absolute coordinates.
In your video, I can see that sometimes it reads current position, then it changes to user origins
I understand once you do the cut n print automatically move to absolute coordinates
Absolute Coordinates is a requirement for Print and Cut so your laser must have limit switches. If you havent seen our newer video on this function it may answer some of your other questions: czcams.com/video/ddRW12VKIwY/video.htmlsi=PEuqBkQZ3NdT13RX
great great! Very useful!! A doubt, does your machine work with a CO2 tube? With mirrors?
Does the laser head has to go back to the Home position before start with the cut n print?
just brilliant
What do you do after you set your 2nd target. Do you unselect everything and click frame or do you press start . Mine keeps going to the top middle and nothing happens, sometimes it just beeps and doesn’t do anything.
I know this video is a year old, but. As always great video ...
I am a newbie trying to cut a project that is larger than my Ortur Laser Master 3. Using the 'mermaid' video from two years ago, I am having no success. My print and cut selections are grayed out and the wizard does not ask for the second reference point. What could be the issue?
Great video
Great stuff
Amazing!
Does the computer need to be connected to the laser via USB to do this? thanks. I'm still learning.
Hi. Great feature. But version 0.9.25 is not yet on your site for download. Am i right ?
@@lightburnsoftware7189 Nice...thanks
I wanted to engrave some USB-Sticks with a selfmade Jig using this feature. I did everything exactly the same but my engraving was totally off. It wasn't centered on the USB but placed in the lower left corner even tough my file was perfectly centered...
Do you have any idea what this could have caused?
Thanks for sharing but I did everything how come my laser moves completely to a different spot. I am in absolute. it start to laser kinda in the middle and up away from the project. Please help. Thank you
Please send an email to our support team support@lightburnsoftware.com. With the steps you have taken and the results you are getting. If you have images of what you are seeing that will help as well.
Two questions... 1. How do you slow your jog speed? 2. After all that aligning and whatnot, do you still send the job to the machine?
1) Depends on the controller, or which controls you're using. If you use the jog buttons in LightBurn, there is a speed control in the Move window. Otherwise you can usually change the speed by hitting the Speed button on your controller. 2) Yes. You kind of have to, otherwise, how would it run the job? (You can also use 'Start', if that's what you're asking)
@@lightburnsoftware7189 did you send the job before or after you click print then cut?
@@jackwagonww - After. Otherwise no corrections are applied.
Thank you x 1000
Thank you
When I set first target position nothing happens. The circle does not appear and the button doesn’t change. I’m running windows 10 and Lightburn 1.1.03
Are you connected to your laser? You have to be. If you are having difficulty, I would recommend either emailing support@lightburnsoftware.com or posting a question on our support forum. CZcams comments do not allow either of us to post screen shots, and are kind of terrible for proper support.
Great! TY
I have a print that I need the laser to cut around? How would you do this with lightburn? Or do I need to use a different program to upload it to lightburn? Any help would be appreciated
this is awesome! would it work for an engrave too? for example if I have a precut item I want to engrave on
I don’t see why not. As long as you have accurate reference points.
@@lightburnsoftware7189 thanks!
At 2:08 the pointer changes from the arrow to the red circle. The interface does not show any tool selected (in the tool well)...How did you go from the arrow to the red circle?
That is the two-point rotation feature. (Ctrl+2 or Edit > 2 point rotate)
Great video, thank you!
how do you adjust the speed of moveing the laser or jog it as you said
You can sent the jog/frame speed under the move window. There is a box labeled speed.
Does this option work on any laser machine? I got with RUIDA controller.
@@lightburnsoftware7189 thank you so much for quick answer. I found out about LB recently, Im impressed what this software can do. I'll be your new user soon. Thank you for all hard work.
How to rotate objects like at 2:11
version 8.o7 has print and cut?
👍👍
Is 0.9.25 available publicly? Print and cut is awesome, but it looks different in the 0.9.24 release I've got on my computer.
@@lightburnsoftware7189 Fantastic! Thanks!
Probably a lot easier with a beam combiner eh?
at 2:08 what tool was used (red line)
Not work for me... :( I tried many times and it never start on same lines... After configure both positions, I select to move laser to click position and it moves for another point... :(
hmm your version is 0.9.25, up to date version is 0.9.24?
@@lightburnsoftware7189 Sweet!
2up. Download don't work
@@lightburnsoftware7189 dont know what was wrong yesterday, but today it works. Thanks for replying.
Great function, busty little hard to use with a co2-laser, because you can’t set the visible laser point. It’s to close to the project 🥲
