INDUSTRIAL PRINTER QUICK START GUIDE
8.
When the fiber is under tension on the spool, remove the tape from inside the spool and set it aside for
later use. We recommend taping it to the front face of the spool.

At the end of the Load Fiber routine, remove the cut piece of fiber from the print head.
SET UP YOUR PRINT BED
Before printing a part, you will need to level your print bed and apply glue to the region of the bed where the
parts will print. Leveling the print bed provides the best chance of print success and minimizes warping.
Applying glue keeps the part attached to the bed during printing and allows for easier part removal.
1.
Install the print bed on the printer.
2.
Run the Laser Bed Level utility by selecting
Menu > Bed Level > Laser Bed Level
on your printer’s
touchscreen and following the onscreen instructions.
Note: The print head will move autonomously during this utility.

When prompted, adjust the thumbscrews (see above image) indicated by the utility until the onscreen
arrow points to the green region of the
Laser Reading
bar.

If the utility displays an error, you may need to adjust the Z-offset. To do so, select the menu icon from
the dashboard and navigate to
Bed Level > Adjust Print Bed Z Offset
, then follow the onscreen
instructions.
