Lasering Photos with new Luban Update

Snapmaker 2.0

Hi all,

i’ve lasered many photos in the past but ever since Luban updated I cant seem to get a clear photo to laser. I also noticed my laser is sitting much closer to the wood than normal now too. I noticed there is a new “greyscale conversion” drop down. Any ideas?
I’m doing the usual gray scale with the Atkinson algorithm and dot filled engraving with the fill interval at .12 but the final product is terrible.

update: I figured it out, for some reason my automatic thickness feature is not working, if I put in the thickness by hand the picture is clear. anyone know how to get the auto thickness to work again?

Redo the thickness calibration for the 10W, was going to say the laser nozzle looks way too close. The new grayscale option varies the power of the laser instead of making dots. It can be nice, but very annoying to dial in good.
