VLS Error "Printed document contains no data"

Post by bradders » Tue 07 Aug , 2007 16:04 pm

VLS Error:

Empty File

The printed document contains no data. Are the printer driver's RAST/VECT pen settings correct? Also, check the driver's engraving field size, or else the Rotary options.

NO DATA error

This error will be created when the pen color is wrong, the line thickness not correct or the page size does not fit the size of the engraver.

When using LaserCAM with a Verslaser, you should set the "Billet" dimensions to match the printer - the printer being the Laser cutter printer driver.

You are asked this when first starting LaserCAM.
If you want to subsequently change the page size, then click the menu -> Options -> Resize Material

When you go to print, the print preview will show exactly how the design will come out, in relation to the bed size of the Laser.

:!: If you do not have the Laser as your default printer, then you may have problems getting the software to recognise the correct bed size :!:
