* Upload your design and settings to the laser cutter hardware as follows:
** Select the 'Download' button
[[File:Laser-Cutter-Screen-Download.png|center|'Download' button]]
** Troubleshooting:  If clicking 'Download' results in a "The communication is broken for timeout.  Please close and open the output window to retry." then the laser cutter is probably not turned on.  Place your card on the reader and turn the key.
** Remove any existing files by selecting them and clicking 'Del all'
** Download (upload) your file by clicking 'Download current'
