I heard some disagreement over auto focus when I was being certified, so it's reasonable that there'd be differing instructions scattered around.

Configure Laser Settings >> Enable Auto Focus

Perhaps I am remembering incorrectly, but I think my trainer (Liz) told me that Auto Focus was not to be trusted, and that the laser should be manually focused every time? --Jaypee (talk) 15:32, 5 November 2013 (CST)

Auto Focus Induced Head Crash

I heard some disagreement over auto focus when I was being certified, so it's reasonable that there'd be differing instructions scattered around. Given that the lazor was temporarily out of commission because of an autofocus-induced head crash and Liz is the CNC area host, I went ahead and changed the wording to say "Do not enable..".

Better Cut Quality

We got better cuts with manual focus over auto focus, enough to make a pretty significant difference.
