<label>If you want to use multiple pens and speeds with your pen plotter, create one layer for each pen number and speed value, name the layers "Pen 1 Speed 10", "Pen 2 Speed 20" etc. and put your drawings on the corresponding layers. This overrides the pen number and pen speed options in the menu above.</label>
