Step 2: Laser Process

When laser engraving this very thin type of paper, you will only need to use minimal laser power, as the material is only being bleached. Place the paper into your laser engraving machine and begin the process using the following parameters:

LASER PARAMETERS:

Colour	Process	Power (%)	Speed (%)	ppi/Hz:
Black	Engrave CO₂	10	10	500
Red	Cut CO₂	2	2	1000
Blue	Cut CO₂	7	4	1000
Cyan	Cut CO₂	9	9	1000

Passes	Air Assist	Z-Offset	Advanced

Step 3: Post-processing

Now that you've finished laser processing your paper, remove it from the machine. You'll need to fold along all the indicated folding lines and stick the packaging together.
