Unique catalogue cover of LaserPaper
See how you can produce valuable catalogue covers, brochures or other printed items using LaserPaper Wood.
Preparation
Required material
- 1 sheet of LaserPaper Wood maple
- material to cover the engraving table
Machine used
- Speedy 360
- 120 Watt
- 2" lens
- aluminum cutting grid table or honeycomb table
For this sample you can use any laser machine from the Speedy laser engraver series.
Important
- For the inner part, use paper with at least 150 g/m² to secure sufficient volume of the finished item
- Make sure that "Send Beziers and paths to driver" is activated in your software. Otherwise the registration marks are not recognized by JobControl® Vision.
Step by step
Step 1: Make design layout
Make your own design and adapt it to your needs. Print your design on the LaserPaper Wood or forward it to your trusted printer.
Because this sample is being engraved and cut, we put a hair cross in the middle of the print file instead of registration marks. This hair cross helps you to position the job precisely.
Send the graphic for the outer shell to the laser using the settings below:
Print settings:
Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
---|---|---|
Standard | 500 dpi | none |
Halftone | Others |
---|---|
Colors | enhanced geometries, inner geometries first |
Step 2: Laser process
Adjust the parameter settings. The parameters can differ depending on the laser machine used and laser power available.
Tip:
Change the order of the colors in JobControl from red to blue so that the material is scratched first and cut second.
Laser parameters:
Color | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
---|---|---|---|---|
black | Engraving CO2 | 20 | 50 | 500 |
red | Engraving CO2 | 12 | 1.5 | 1000 |
blue | Cutting CO2 | 5 | 1.5 | 1000 |
Passes | Air Assist | Z-Offset | Advanced |
---|---|---|---|
1 | on | +2.5 mm | - |
1 | on | - | - |
1 | on | +2 mm | - |

Step 3: Post-processing
Take the cover out of your laser and insert the core of the catalogue. Or if you are using a commercial printer, forward the cut-out cover to your printing representative to attach it to the catalogue.

Step by step
Step 1: Create the Design Layout
First, you'll need to create your own design and adapt it to your needs. Print it on the LaserPaper Wood or forward it to your trusted printer. Since the sample is being engraved and cut, we have placed a hair across the middle of the print file instead of a bunch of registration marks. This hairline cross will help you position the job properly.
Now, send the graphic for the outer shell to your laser machine using the following settings:
Print Settings:
Process Mode | Resolution | Cut Line |
---|---|---|
Standard | 500dpi | None |
Halftone | Others |
---|---|
Colours | Enhanced Geometries, Inner Geometries First |
Step 2: Laser Process
Make sure you adjust the parameter settings before you start processing your material! And please note that these parameters can differ depending on the laser machine you are using and its available laser power.
Tip:
Try changing the order of the colours in JobControl from red to blue so that the material is scratched first and cut second.
Laser Parameters:
Colour | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
---|---|---|---|---|
Black | Engraving CO2 | 20 | 50 | 500 |
Red | Engraving CO2 | 12 | 1.5 | 1000 |
Blue | Cutting CO2 | 5 | 1.5 | 1000 |
Passes | Air Assist | Z-Offset | Advanced |
---|---|---|---|
1 | ON | +2.5mm | - |
1 | ON | - | - |
1 | ON | +2mm | - |

Step 3: Post-Processing
Remove the cover from your laser machine and insert the core of the catalogue. Or, if you are using a commercial printer, you can forward the cut-out cover to your printing representative and they can attach it to the catalogue.
