== Raster with Paint ==
As I’m sure you have seen, the makerspace has a variety of laser cut signs that have incorporate color to draw your attention. Theses signs were created using the same laser cutters as the ones you use in the space. All you will need is some paint, paint brush, material board, and of course the laser cutter. In this process you will have to print the pdf multiple times.
# Upload the pdf document you wish to print onto your material board.
# Make sure all printing properties match the material properties.
# Upload it to the printer
# Run the uploaded job (Wait till the job is done)
# Now fill in the lighter shapes with your desired color (Don’t worry about getting paint on the laser cut lines, they will burn off in the next job, however, large amounts of paint will soak into different materials depending on what materials you use)
# Now repeat steps 4 to 5 until satisfaction.
