First night printing

Ok, so while I am waiting for my 'forge (and waiting and…) I occupy myself by checking in on what others are doing and I seem to always have the same question in my mind. Referencing YawString’s design I can see that some areas are cut through and some are etched. How does the machine know the difference or is it done in multiple passes? And if it is multiple operations I start thinking about registration, multiple files, etc.

Please forgive my ignorance here. I would love to be trying this out myself but in the meantime I will rely on the indulgence of those here in the forum for help. And thanks in advance.
