Thanks for the inputs. I have scaled back the power and learned a little more about the issue and a painful workaround that appears to be my course of action right now.

If I run the job at...

I would also suggest grabbing another computer and installing Job Control and seeing if it still is happening. I run my Job Control off a laptop without issues. Get

I was having an unrelated...

Hi Gang - I'm at my wits end with my latest job. I have a few hundred pint glasses to do and my laser isn't cooperating with me, or I'm not cooperating with my laser (the latter is more likely).

Here is the logo in CorelDraw and the status bars, I noticed the RGB values at the bottom right this time..

Here is how the successful job looked in Job Control

Finally success with a test engraving.

In the engraving above I made a black square, green fill, blue text and a red circle and all are different engraving steps except a final cut step...

Amen to that Gary!

Steve - I just tried the .tsf JobControl file you had no trouble with on your end and it works fine on my end, so you are correct this is some setting within CorelDraw.

More good points. That got me to thinking, I may try putting this job through Illustrator and send it to the laser. I'm curious if the results will be different.

It brings me full circle to not understanding why the vector cutting jobs that I've previously ran that employ many different color profiles have been super straightforward (make sure the RGB color...

Steve - So you are saying you sent the job to JCX even with CMYK showing in the color window for the logo and it still ran both colors? I thought CMYK was taboo.

Regardless of my CorelDraw...

Where "standard" is there are the following options:

I saw "Ordered Dithering" under the half-tone selection where I chose "color".

Shouldn't you be heading out to Williamsburg tomorrow for some great reenactments? I've been to Richmond/Williamsburg...

No problem, here it is:

Part of this is that I'm barely a student of CorelDraw, my experience with it is merely a few months old at this point, so everything I learn about it is new. I definitely have been leveraging the...

Gary - Sorry I got distracted working through Steve's inputs.

Yes, I got intimately familiar the material template and the assigned colors when I did a layered Crater Lake relief map. I used...

I initially didn't see it, but messing around I found it under a drop down list.

After turning off color management I changed the logo color to cyan and "cyan" now appears on the bottom...

Hey Steve,

Thanks for the .xml and this did get me closer, but has also raised more questions.

Attached you'll see the screenshot (CorelDrawSS.jpg) of my CD screen. The Trotec palette on the...

Can you tell me how to install/access the Trotec color palette? I took a cursory look in CorelDraw when changing colors, but didn't see Trotec palette as an option.

Scott, no I am not using the specific Trotec Color Palette (I've seen you mention it in other posts, but have not ever learned how to employ it yet), but the logo I changed to RGB (0,255,0) for green...

I'm having no luck in getting a job from Corel to Trotec's JobControl that has multiple colors for different engraving settings.

The reason I need to do this is that I'm engraving on 4" tennis...

I think I figured out my problem and it was all on my end. :mad: The threads on the top of the aluminum bottle were not engaging with the rubber o-rings on the drive wheels. That wasn't the only...

Thanks Doug. I'm trying to do what I can on my end and work through this with the great support team that is Sawmill Creek. I actually have very good contacts within Trotec all the way up through...

I am a huge fan of this for a lot of reasons.

I purchased an optical breadboard with M6 threaded holes with precise 25mm spacing between all the holes. I purchased a couple dozen 3" pins to...

Thanks Kev. It may have something to do with what you are saying, but it feels like it's reacting in an opposite fashion. If the cone drive depends on my inputs for measurements whereas the...

I too would be interested in other people's operating environments. My Trotec CO2/Fiber is in the garage in the PNW. It will get as low as 50F in the winter and as warm as 85F in the summer. I'm a...

Scott that does make some sense. If it was mechanical in nature you would think there would be missing data. If it was software related you would think the job preview would reflect the elongated...
