I use OctoPrint to control…my laser engraver
OctoPrint is an invaluable tool for laser printing.

Most people know OctoPrint as a must-have for 3D printer users. It provides remote access, easy file uploads, and powerful plugin support. But lately, I’ve been using it for something a little different: controlling my diode and IR laser engraver. OctoPrint isn’t officially designed for that task, but with the correct setup and expectations, it works surprisingly well.
