That is strange. Are you sending with Repetier Server? Are you running Marlin firmware?
I think youāre using older version of image2gcode. The decimal power values are removed long ago. Iām not sure how well repetier tolerates the decimal values since the M106 command expects an integer value between 0 and 255. Try again without the decimal power values. Marlin will ignore them when running from SD card but Iām not familiar with repetier host.
I have no issues running that with Repetier Host. I used to get errors like he posted running from Repetier Server.
Hi Jason, thanks for your quick replyā¦
Use MarlinKimbra, a modified Italian version of the standard Marlin. (which also has an automatic online configurator)
http://www.marlinkimbra.it/
since I had little time available for testing I just tried to follow the video on youtube where uses Inkscape + JProthonics plugin and finally it worked.
Obviously you are keeping 0min 255max like you advised me
On the non-operation of the file youāve attached to me ā¦ I do not know why does not work.
After various tests on ImagetoGcode I discovered that any image you load uses more and M106 S5 ā¦
I wonder so if anyone has a way to attach a version that works ā¦ because what I feel I can not explain the reason of the malfunction
Thanks a lot!
I would suspect maybe that version is not liking the decimals in the power levels maybe.
Well we are morphing our mirror process slightly. It taking 12-20 hours to do a mirror is getting a little tedious and now that I have the vinyl cutter working sortaā¦ I will be switching to sandblasting mirrors. That will take my time spent per mirror to about 15 minutes.
This was my first attempt on just regular glass.
I got a realy strange thing.
When i create something with ESTLCAM or with Inkscape it works fine but when I want to convert a picture and engrave it i got everything twice, as it seems in a shift to right ā¦ (See image)
I tried an other laptop, also changed the driver board. Same results.
Someone had this before? And how to solve this?
make sure you donāt have a hidden layer in inkscape.
Iām not using inkscape.I was talking about the img2gcode converter.
Opened a image I created with paint and saved as *.bmp.
Also tried it with an *.jpg (downloaded from internet)
Made the code with the img2gcode program
(2 versions, normal one and the mpcnc version)
Can you make an example code for testing? Just something, donāt care what.
Make the begin laser power from 27 max 60 (iām using the mpcnc with a 100W CO2 laser, and still adjusting it)
Laser on with M42 P4 S and off with M42 M4 S0
Will burn it and show you the results.
Thanks in advance.
Hi sorry been crazy busy lately. That is an interesting result. Can you post the source image and a picture of how you are using a 100w tube with mpcnc.
Hmmm duplicate messageā¦ if so i will delete the old one. (second attempt)
Ok, I knew this was coming. Iām busy with a full manual what I did and how I made this work. Power supply and all the other stuff.
But to have a quick peek what Iām building here the first results.
InkScape run 1
Much better!
InkScape run 2

Also tried a EstlCam:
Yes I know, forgot a few things to do 
but a good first test with EstlCam ā¦ not?
But give me something to test with greyscaleā¦
Something like this? for a start?
make it 10 by 10, speed 2500, laserpower min 27 max 60 leave the place left below (need to add home sensors)
start laser M42 P4 S
Off laser M42 P4 S0
Will you transfer a picture for me?
In return I will send more movies and manuals
Check all your layers. Might have one that is offset that you donāt see. I also see an issue when converting multiple layers to geode, layers are replicated. I havenāt figured it out yet, but layer one is fine, layer two is layer one and two, layer 3 is layer one, two and threeā¦ etc. I go in and clean up the replicated layers. Typically, the designs are standardized, so I only have to clean up the files once.
Careful listening to the serverās suggestions. That post is 4 years old.
Realized that unfortunately after hitting enterā¦ oops
