We're looking for a small desktop laser engraver for stamp manufacture. Preferably we'd like one that can be used from a Mac or a PC - our design person, who would be using the machine often, uses a MacBook Pro, and would like to be able to format designs in Illustrator before exporting them to whatever program is used to run the engraver.
What should I keep in mind as I'm weighing the pros and cons of different models? What specifications make a laser engraver good for cutting rubber stamps? We're looking for something under $4000... and would be thrilled if we could find one that's less. Any advice as we're planning our purchase?
Thanks for your help,
