(Optional) Creating a Laser Marking File
Laser graphics used to mark devices are generated using
WinMark Pro software. It may be on the Laser Computer
located in
the Option Bay (some models) or on the Handler Computer.
Any style of marking (whether text-based, graphic-based, or both)
can be generated and used for marking devices. The only limitation is
the size of the device to be marked.
Creating an Image File for the Laser System
To create an image file for the laser system to use in laser marking
devices:
1. Preparation—
1a. Select the Laser Computer by pressing the Ctrl key twice— a list
of all computers is displayed on the monitor. If you don’t have a
Laser computer skip this step.
Note: The touch screen does not work while viewing the Laser
Computer. Use the keyboard and track pad.

Template.mkh
(or copy the .

(drawing) file in the job creation process, for example,
Ver7.mkh
.

desktop.
2. Load the file—
