    Cool Driver and Tube Help! Found an old GCC LaserPro L-30 Machine..

    Hello to all!

    I recently found an old GCC LaserPro L-30 Laser engraver with a Synrad J-48 2 25W tube.
    I downloaded and installed the Mercury v3.58 driver without a problem and the laser machine starts moving when I send it an .eps file.
    But then it stops and says on the laser’s LCD display:
    “Command error, Use GCC driver or HP pen plotter driver”

    What am I not doing correctly? Maybe the file I’m sending isn’t right?
    I made an .eps file using Photoshop and I sized it to 25 X 18 inch, then I printed it from Photoshop and chose Mercury in the print settings..

    Also, I am interested in upgrading the tube to a Synrad J-48 5 50W.
    As far as i understand, I can replace the power supply with a stronger one (the 50W tube needs 30V 28A), CNC new mounting brackets for the larger laser, install water cooling tubes and a pump, and put a BNC spliter to connect the 50w laser to the GCC main board.
    Am i missing something?

    We are a special effects studio so we have alot of experience and tools around here..

    Hi
    Cant halp you with GCC cos I`m not familiar with, but if you need Synrad 48-5 that is what I know and have.
    Also RF splitter, water tubes, power supply, etc
    Also have later generation t60 and t100 Synrads.
