On each setting page you will see:
- Power — laser power, as a percentage of the machine's max.
- Speed — how fast the head moves (usually mm/s; some machines use mm/min).
- LPC / DPI / Line Interval — engraving resolution. Line interval is the gap between scan lines (smaller = finer/darker); DPI/LPI is the same idea expressed as dots/lines per inch. This only applies to engraving, not cutting.
- Passes — how many times the laser repeats the path (more passes cut thicker material).
- Frequency / Pulse Width — fine controls used mostly on fiber/CO2 for certain effects.
- Engraving angle — the scan angle for engraves.
- Crosshatch — whether the engrave is filled in two directions.
- Thickness — material thickness the cut was tested at.
- Lens — the lens used (mostly CO2), when provided.
