Speed:
Fine, Normal or Fast. This simply determines the speed at which the printer moves. As a
general rule, the slower you print, the better the quality of the parts. For tall parts, running at Fast
speed can be problematic as the printer can vibrate to the extent that print quality is affected. For
large surface area parts, the Fine setting can be
