Turning My 3d printer into a laser engraver, works fine, but I cant engrave slower than 300 mm/m.

recently I added a laser module on my 3d printer, so that i can both 3d print and engrave. But my laser is pretty weak, it can barely cut paper. To cut paper, i have to generate a gcode with really slow laser speed around 50mm/m , but the repetier software ignores it. I knows there is a limit to how slow you can go, but i dont know how to change it, i searched through google to find a solution. Im a Noob and i wish someone could show me a step by step process on how to change the slowest travel limit. Thank you.

    Min speed depends on acceleration, so reduce travel and print acceleration and min speed gets reduced as well.
