    Hi there!

    Just finish installing my laser on quenbe pro. Everything work fine if I use openbuildCAM. Laser is Laser tree LT-80-AA.

    I bought vcarve laser module on vcarve desktop (latest version). I'm not sur what post processor to use.. I try G-codeARC but won't output the gcode. I'm a bit confused now ;)

    Can someone help me out with this?

    Thanks!

    I'm confused again haha!

    So, for my laser, I use the same post processor as for carving?

    Whatever I try, when I try to save g-code it say : Error occur,

    Its supposed to, but if that doesn't work we'd recommend contact Vectric Support - they may need to make changes to our post (they maintain it since v10.5 as far as I know)

    Let us know what they say! I know it used to work - so would be interesting - maybe a bug in vectric itself, or something that the post needs to catch up on. Looking forward to hearing about it. If you get stuck with them, also let us know please so we can see what we can do
