Hello, I have a cnc mill (router) and have got a 8w Laser head which Id like to use to laser engrave some anodize aluminum.

This is the head Ive got:

I Run my machine with Mach4 and ESS smoothstepper.

Can anyone help with me how to wire up the laser head and to make a post processor so Fusion Trace toolpaths will engrave?
