Kraft Paper

104 settings51 machines

This page lists 104 community-tested settings for Kraft Paper. Paper cuts cleanly on both diode and CO₂ lasers - the key is high speed and low power to avoid charring and burning. Thinner paper (80gsm) needs less power than cardstock (200–300gsm). Air assist is usually not needed and can cause tearing on lightweight sheets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best laser settings for Kraft Paper?

A top-rated community setting for Kraft Paper on the xTool M1 is speed 1000 mm/min, power 55%. There are 104 community-tested settings for Kraft Paper across 51 machines on this page.

Can a diode laser engrave or cut Kraft Paper?

Yes - there are 60 community settings for Kraft Paper on diode lasers and 42 on CO₂ lasers. CO₂ lasers generally cut faster and cleaner, but modern high-wattage diode lasers handle most paper work well.

Laser cutting paper - what you need to know

Paper is one of the easiest materials to laser cut, but getting clean edges without charring takes the right balance of speed and power. The golden rule: go fast, go light. A 40W CO₂ laser cutting 80gsm copy paper might run at 120 mm/s and only 9% power - barely anything. Diode lasers need a bit more power but the same principle applies.

Paper vs cardstock laser settings

Lightweight copy paper (75–90gsm) needs the least power and highest speed. Medium cardstock (160–200gsm) can handle slightly more power. Heavy cardstock and chipboard (250–350gsm) may need 2 passes or a modest power increase. The settings in the table above cover this range across the most popular machines.

Tips for cleaner paper cuts

  • Turn off air assist - it blows lightweight paper off the bed
  • Use a honeycomb or pin bed to support the sheet flat
  • Tape the corners to prevent lifting mid-cut
  • For intricate designs, reduce speed by 10–15% and power by the same - this gives the laser more time to cut cleanly without burning
  • If you get consistent char on one side, check your lens focus
