Settings: Image Position

NOTE: This setting does not change the HOME position.

We really INSIST that you setup you machine to Cartesian Standards! - where (X-) = left and (X+) = right, (Y+) = top, and (Y-) = bottom. This helps standardize things. If you only have an Y-endstop at the top (like the K40s) - set it up as MAX ENDSTOP in firmware! This help us all work on a standardized system

What this feature does, is allow you to default the position of an image relative to the top-left, or bottom-left corner. Some machines (like the k40) benefit from working closer to the beam entry point, top-left, for higher cutting power. Lets consider this the "origin" - not "home". Home (0,0) will always be lower left corner (Cartesian, remember).

  • Go to Settings -> Tool -> Place Image in Quadrant: and select the one you would like to use

Bottom Left (Default)
