My laser has been working nearly faultlessly for about 4 years. Its a Trotec Rayjet (the European model Rayjet, and not what is commonly known as a Rayjet in the US)
I went to use it this afternoon to engrave some coasters for a customer. The coaster is 90mm in diameter and I use CorelDraw X8. The logo is centred in the 90mm circle and yet it engraves off-centre. I have cleaned the laser from top to bottom, rebooted the computer and checked my drawings but the engraving s still off-centre.
I have heard of dirty encoder strips with regards to other lasers and how they should be cleaned if this happens. I dont know if this is the problem or it may be something else, but I don't know where they are on the Rayjet.
Can some please point me in the right direction.

Thank you

Mike
