The laser stops firing in the meddle of the job but the head doesn’t stops. When that happens, the head eventually stops, moves back and tries to keep engraving where it stops. The problem with that is that when that happens it never restart in the same position, making a really noticeable line along the path. That line is just shifted from the “original path” that the laser was supposed to follow. It does that no matter if the engraving is vector or raster. Please help!

      Sounds like a temporary loss of connection to the laser, so the head keeps moving until the connection is remade and then it continues. While you didn’t state what laser or anything of your setup, I would suggest trying a different USB cable if you’re tethered directly to Lightburn. Maybe a higher quality one with ferrites. Also make sure you’re not maxing out your PC resources causing lag.
