My unit was just “going through the motion” without the laser beam. I tried numerous attempts but still no go. The tube doesn’t glow like before… oh boy. Has anyone encountered similar issues?
No laser firing from the printhead
Check the power setting too - I just accidentally ran through an entire engrave with the power set to 1.
Ugh!
I had to adjust the power and speed to test the plywood from Home Depot. So I did triple check the settings. Sometimes it won’t cut all the way through because of some knots/voids. I will try again this weekend.
I cleaned it AFTER. I thought it may be too dirty and causing it not to beam properly.
Who, @Rita? (Naw, she’s cool! Very down to earth, and so incredibly patient with all of my flubs.)

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide more detail, and the video. Unfortunately, it looks like your unit is experiencing an issue that we can’t resolve remotely. I want you to have a reliable unit, so I’m recommending we replace this one. I’ll be in touch via email to sort out the details.
I’m so sorry for the bad news.
