Mark Too Light / No Contrast
Low contrast is usually power, frequency, speed, or focus height — not a hardware fault.
- Adjust power, frequency, and speed together.
- Confirm focus height for the material.
- Test on scrap before committing to the part.

Not Firing / No Mark

Common questions
CO₂ Galvo FAQs.
Which manual covers my CO₂ Galvo system?
The CO₂ Galvo documentation is available from Boss technical support — request it from the card above or open your model below.
My mark is too light — what do I change?
Start with power, frequency, and speed together, then confirm focus height for the material. Test on scrap before running the part.
What lens do I need for my field size?
A larger field size needs a longer focal-length F-theta lens, while a smaller field with a shorter lens gives a finer spot and more detail. Match the lens to the part in the lens and field-size guide.
