E4. Preparing a 3D model
1. Most 3D printable files that you will find on
YouMagine.com are in the STL format. Let’s start
by clicking on the Load button in Cura.
2. When you have loaded a file into Cura you
might notice the progress bar .
Cura is automatically making the 3D model print
ready for you.
3. In the meantime you can adjust settings and
select a print type.
4. When the 3D model is prepared, the Save
toolpath button shows up and gives you the
option to save the prepared model in a
directory.
Underneath the button Cura gives you an
indication about your print on
- Estimated Print Time
- Amount of material required
- And the weight of your 3D print
5. After you inserted the included SD-card into
your computer, Cura changes the Save
toolpath Button into the Toolpath to SD
Button

button you will see the same progress bar but
now it saves the file on the SD card.

notification that your file has been saved.
