HOW THE MAKERBOT REPLICATOR MINI+ WORKS

The MakerBot Replicator Mini+ makes three-dimensional objects out of melted MakerBot PLA Filament.
First, use MakerBot Print to translate 3D design files into instructions for the MakerBot Replicator Mini+.
Then, transfer those instructions to the MakerBot Replicator Mini+ via your local network, the MakerBot
Mobile App, or USB cable. The MakerBot Replicator Mini+ will melt MakerBot PLA Filament and squeeze it
out onto the build plate in thin lines to build your object layer by layer.
