Newbie Help with backwards laser cutting

Post by Jtex »

Hi, I'm hoping someone will not mind helping a newbie. I have just purchased a 60 watt Chinese laser machine and am hoping for good result for my needs.
I'm finally able to cut/engrave using the RDworks software however for some reason my "Home" origin point is on the upper right on the laser machine. and upper left in RD works. To get something to engrave/cut if located on the upper left of the page on RDwords I have to change the origin on the laser cutter to manually moving it to the left. But then my file is engraved/cut backwards or mirrored image rather than as it shows on the screen in RD works. I've searched for a fix for this but I suppose I'm not entering the correct search terms.
If someone has some insight into what I might need to do to fix this I'd be so grateful.
TIA,
Janet
