Important safety notice
Settings are starting points — always run a test cut on scrap before your final piece. Follow your manufacturer's guidance, wear eye protection, and ensure proper ventilation.

Tested Dollar General cork coasters with Engrave. Laid the coaster flat on the base plate. Did tape it to keep it from possibly shifting.
Not sure how to adjust the settings Xtool pulled for my project and is listing it with only 1% power. I believe it has my settings on the default "unknown" material settings which is not what I used.
The actual settings used for this was:
25% Power
225 MM/s
200 lines/cm
1 pass
10-15% air assist
I did not put painters tape on the cork as suggested by others. The burn already comes out clean with very little to no halo burn marks.
