Image Preparation: Converted in the xTool Creative Space (XCS) app Image Style: Vintage Pen Adjusted and optimized for high-contrast photo engraving Best results achieved with a clean black-and-white conversion before processing Laser Settings: Material: Glass Ornament (65 mm) Laser: xTool F2 Ultra UV Processing Mode: Image Engraving Image Style: Vintage Pen (converted in XCS prior to exporting) Air Assist: Off Focus: Surface of the glass Rotary: Not required (if engraving a single area) Masking: None Dot Duration: 200 Power: 100% DPI: 500 Jarvis Notes: The Vintage Pen conversion produces fine engraved lines instead of solid fills, resulting in a clean, detailed engraving on glass. Higher image contrast generally provides the best results. Avoid images with very dark backgrounds or excessive fine detail, as they may reduce clarity on curved glass. Position the ornament securely to prevent movement during engraving.
