    Hello,

    Our shop uses a speedy 500 with job control 9.4.2
    Corel Draw X6

    We rarely engrave photos, but a customer recently wanted a black and white image engraved onto a piece of wood.
    We've been trying to achieve the desired look for the customer using various settings within corel as well as the different settings within job control(ie power/speed/dpi settings, halftoning settings, relief settings etc.) The results are just not quite there yet.

    My question is to anyone who has used both versions of the software or is familiar with job control X and engraving photographs. We are toying with the idea of upgrading our software, but want to know how much better or easier it is to engrave photos using Job Control X. I've read through the tips for improving photo engravings pdf that trotec released in regards to photos, so we're familiar with the improvements of X compared to 9.4.2, but obviously not the results they will give, or the ease of use.

    Thanks in advance,
    Leivon
