Original Instructions 2015
Initial Setup
CONNECT THE USB
Locate the USB cord on the front of the printer. Plug the
USB cord into your computer.
Note: It is recommended to install the driver and 3D printing
software PRIOR to connecting the printer to your computer.
Launch your 3D printing software and connect to the
3DP1000. You may need to 'Refresh Ports' in order for
your computer to initially find the printer.
INSTALL FILAMENT SPOOL
The filament spool holder is located on
the back side of the printer. Remove the
pin on the left side of the filament spool
holder to release the rod.
Slide the filament roll onto the rod.
Secure the filament by returning the rod
to the original position and re-inserting
the pin.
SENSOR VERIFICATION
The 3DP1000 printer has three position sensors–one for
the X axis, one for the Y axis, and one for the Z axis.
These sensors prevent the extruder and/or the actuators
from traveling beyond the designated print area–which
can cause serious damage or breakage to the extruder,
glass, and/or the mechanical hardware on the printer.
Important:
Each 3DP1000 is tested and calibrated
prior to shipping, but it is important to verify the
functionality of the sensors in case of damage or
movement during the shipping process.
• Hold a piece of metal–such as a coin–under
each sensor location. The red light indicates the
sensor is operational.
• Contact 3D Platform if sensors are non-operational.
Do not attempt to operate printer.
