You need to cough up more info.

Does it have a printer driver? Is it for cutting only?

Yes ... has Venus printer drivers.   Venus Laser Pro is the laser .  I was primarily going to use it for engraving, etching glass, leather etc.

Just wasn't sure the of power and speed settings.

 

thanks

If your (Laser) user's manual does not have some starting values for power and speed, then it will be just a matter of testing various settings with various materials and colors.

If it were me, I would start with a low power and medium/middle speed and go from there, adding or subtracting power and/or speed until I have the desired etching depth for that material. And then I would keep a record of that setting for a future time when I revisit etching the same material or material that is chemically close to the same.
