When using programs such as CorelDRAW and/or AutoCAD, there is usually a “Print Preview”

feature that is part of the graphics program itself. Refer to your software program’s manual on

how to use “Print Preview”. “Print Preview” can be a very useful tool that can help you

determine if you have set up your graphic properly BEFORE trying to print to the laser system.

But what about AFTER you send the file to the laser system? Since the laser system itself does

not have the ability to graphically display the downloaded file that has already been printed, this

“View” feature, which is actually a post-viewer, was added to the driver so that you can view the

last 10 files that were printed to the laser system.

The file displayed is the last file that was sent to the laser system. It shows the name of the file

as well as the date and time that you printed it. In the above example, if you were to click on an

object such as the “Test” graphic or the rectangle around the graphic, the color as well as the

Power and Speed for that color will be displayed. Also, if there were a check mark in the “R”

and “V” boxes, then the raster images as well as the vector images would be visually displayed,

respectively. The “<<” and the “>>” toggles you backwards and forward through the last 10

files. When the 11

file is printed, the Printer Driver automatically deletes the first file to allow

the 11

file to be displayed, thus maintaining the list of the last 10 files that were printed.

Upgrading the Printer Driver

At some point in time, there may be a printer driver upgrade available. This may be due to

feature that may have been added or software compatibility issues. Regardless, if there are any

upgrades available, they can be obtained by contacting our Customer Support Department.

Usually, upgrades can be mailed to you on floppy disk or emailed to you. Since the upgrade

procedure may change from time to time, we will always include instructions on how to perform

the upgrade. The upgrade instructions will most likely be a “.txt” file or a “.doc” file that can be

found with your upgrade.

Upgrading the Firmware

The software that is embedded in the CPU (Central Processing Unit or the “brains”) of the laser

system is called “Firmware”. The Firmware is what controls the laser system. It allows the laser

system’s CPU to process files from your computer by controlling the display, motors, and laser

cartridge to produce engraving. Same as the printer driver, firmware upgrades, if they are

available, can be obtained from our Customer Support Department and can be mailed or

emailed to you. Again, since the upgrade procedure may change from time to time, we will

always include instructions on how to perform the upgrade. The upgrade instructions will most

likely be a “.txt” file or a “.doc” file that can be found with your upgrade.
