Preparing your printer

Opening the box

The uBuild-3D Mr Bot 280 printer is very well packaged in a five-card carton and
foam-protected polyethylene.

Open the box and remove the protective cardboard with polyethylene foam.

Lift the printer with your hands as shown below.

Setting up the printer

After removing the packaging, to operate your printer you only need two steps,

a) assembling the LCD display, and b) installing the spool holder. Your printer
settings are entirely based on the relevant function menu.
