How are you doing. My name is Martin. I'm a 45 year old teacher in a little school in Holland. 3D printing is one of my hobbies for years and I took it in my lessons about 10 years ago. I had built some printers with my students as well as a lasercutter. But the lasercutter was from makeBlock and not really useable in an educational setting. I needed more safety and more possibilities. So now we have a 80watt Metaquip (it's a real beast!) and we have Rdworks as software to use it. I'm learning how to use it and how to make it educational usefull. And so I found this forum. Thank you for accepting me to this forum.

Welcome Martin. We have a revised manual you may find somewhat useful and be sure to review the FAQ section for a few tips on backing up the vendor settings.
