I have a small web-based business. We are making laser cut and engraved hardwood family tree. I just bought and ran some black marble for the first time. I have tried Phot-Grav manipulated images and standard Corel manipulated images. I get banding (horizontal strips) across the photo image on the marble. I have been running a number of setting, 300 DPI and about 60% power and 80 IPM provides the best, but image still has light and dark bands. It is not the marble, as the pattern repeats on blue copy paper. I am afraid it is in the laser tube. I have contacted and am sending some samples to my laser manufacturer. Machine is a 40 Watt Xenetech. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks, Hale
