Device Setup
If you’ve never run LightBurn, the first thing you need to do is set up your machine layout (work area size
and zero / origin) in the settings, and then add your device type in the devices box. If you have more
than one type of laser / device, you can add more than one and choose a default. At present, the layout
and page size aren’t associated with the device, but this will be changed to that in the future.
If you’ve never used LightBurn before, you’ll also need to tell LightBurn a couple of thing about your
hardware to get started.
1. In the lower-right of the display is a box called “Laser” - on
