Epilog Laser FusionPro 16000 User Manual

The drawings below show a job that works in the opposite way - the horizontal mode will take longer
than the portrait mode. You’ll notice in the portrait mode there are a number of white space lines that the
laser can skip through, saving engraving time. In the landscape mode there is not white space for the
laser to recognize as it moves down the page, taking the engraving time from 10:12 to 17:14. Experiment
with the artwork that you use. It will quickly become second nature which mode works best for dierent
types of artwork.
A third consideration for landscape or portrait art setup is material specific. Some materials, such as
wood or plastics that have a grain or brushed look, will look better when engraved if the grain of the
material runs parallel with the X-stroke of the carriage. While the orientation of material without a grain
pattern is usually not important, it is important to keep this in mind with woods that have a stronger grain
pattern.
