Spirit GE User Manual
NOTE
The Spirit GE print driver cannot store more than 16 pen colors or different laser
parameter settings per file.
Speed (Pen Page)
[DEFAULT SETTING: 50]
The speed slider controls the laser’s speed during operation (engraving speed) with a range setting from
0.1 – 100%. The Spirit GE’s maximum laser processing speed is 60 inches per second, therefore a
setting of 100% speed is equivalent to 60 inches per second and a 10% speed setting would be
equivalent to 6 inches per second. Keep in mind, this is the speed the laser moves at when cutting or
engraving straight lines. The machine will automatically slow down when processing curves.
TIP
Cutting / engraving depth and quality are determined by a combination of power and
speed. Slower speeds at higher power will produce deeper cuts and engravings,
whereas higher speeds at lower power will produce more shallow cuts and engravings.
