The bottom right part of the table has the least power from the laser.
I dont remember exactly how the aligned it, but he used something that looked like crosshares on a scope.
Ross:
The alignment is done with a little target with the crosshairs you remember supplied by Epilog. It fits in the hole in the front of the lense carriage. The machine is in maintenance mode/alignment from the keypad. At that point the power is dramatically reduced, the laser is fired by pushing the up arrow key. The target is covered with a piece of tape to check the burn and it is compared to center on the target. If out of line, the adjustment is generally done by adjusting the mirror. Normally Epilog would call the bottom right "position 2" and should get a good burn because it is closer to where the beam comes out. The least amount of burn would be at the bottom left. If your not getting a good burn on #2, my guess would be that it may be the tube or some other component. I doubt, in my mind, that alignment would be the issue.
