If you want to use greyscale you will need to do a PWM mod (switch jumper) and use T2laser software. Head over to http://benboxlaser.us where there is a forum full of information and helpful people. You can get a trial version of T2laser there.

Did they make it so that you can vary the intensity to produce grayscale images?
