Many people often ask which version of Lightburn they should purchase to use with their D series laser. If you're interested in trying Lightburn, we recommend downloading it and taking advantage of the one-month free trial. During the trial period, you can freely use either version without having to commit to a specific one.

Once you've decided to make a purchase, you'll only need the GCode version, which is the more affordable option. You can find it on the Lightburn website here: Lightburn GCode Version.

After downloading and installing the software, the next step is to set it up for your specific laser model (D1 or D1 Pro). To do this, you'll need to obtain the appropriate configuration files and follow the provided guidelines. Here are the respective pages that offer detailed directions for configuring Lightburn with your laser:
