Overview: Development of a control package for a stepper motor driven Laser Cutter. Software components required: Laser Printer Driver Overview: The printer driver allows the machine to be used directly with any Vector Drawing Graphics package such as Adobe Illustrator/Corel Draw/Solidworks etc. The printer driver identifies the different parts of the drawing based on line colour and then allows the user to adjust the associated settings. (Speed / Power / Pulse) Upon pressing print the Printer driver converts the drawing & sends to laser control software. Laser Control Software: Overview: The laser control software acts as the interface between the user and the machine. Here you can see the file that has been sent from the printer driver to the laser cutter. You can jog the axis/X/Y/Z to check the position of the work etc. You can check and adjust settings at this stage also. Starting sends the appropriate commands to the laser control board – You can then Pause/Stop/Restart the job Machine configuration will need to be setup and hidden in the laser control software. Experience: Software developer is expected to provide some examples of relevant experience e.g. CNC/Gcode/Printer driver architecture/3D printer/Smoothieware etc At this stage control board/firmware is still flexible and may be dependent of programmer familiarity but is likely to be G-code based. If you feel you are suitable for this project please make contact for a more detailed discussion.

I have experience with low-level and embedded programming though not with laser printers in particular. The cost is just an example. I can provide a more accurate quote once we discuss the project. Relevant Skills and Experience Experience with low-level and embedded programming, assembly language. Proposed Milestones £10000 GBP - Milestones can be discussed after the project requirements are prepared and the project is planned. I would be glad to discuss the project in detail over phone, Skype, chat or other method. While I am not an expert on the related firmware Gcode seems to be a good choice. There also seem to be some tools that can be used to convert images to Gcode which can help speed up the project and decrease development cost. Of course you have the final word on what third-party components (if any) are to be used - I can provide my professional opinion on the quality of the components and the benefits they bring to the project.
