Black and dark surfaces require the laser. Scanning at 0.1mm creates too many points, just use 0.5mm. Einscan calls a scan a “project”. Scans (projects) are grouped together in Project Groups. When scanning even a small part, expect to do several scans. In other words, create several projects then align the projects before generating the mesh. text/html 2024-08-27T18:25:47+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.greybrucemakers.ca/doku.php?id=epiloglasercleaning&rev=1724783147&do=diff Epilog Laser Cleaning The Trays Until further notice we will clean the epilog laser trays outside in the back yard.

I think this happens because the extruder heats up very quickly but the bed is much slower. So some melted PETG oozes out of the extruder while it is waiting for the bed.
