6 FIRST USE OF THE PRINTER
6.1. General warnings
The reading of this chapter assumes, in order to use the printer safely, the knowledge of the contents of paragraph
1.6 “General safety warnings”.
Furthermore, the specific requirements for safe interaction with the printer, related to this chapter, are detailed
in the following paragraphs.

NOTE:
• Visit the website www.3dwasp.com/en/download/ for the updated printing profiles, user
manuals and useful resources for the use of the machine.
6.2. Preparing the 3D file
Make sure that the 3D model follows these guidelines:
- Watertight (manifold geometry and absence of defects
- Correctly scaled
- Exported in .stl format (binary is generally to prefer)
6.3. Slicing software
The slicing software divides the 3D model into many sections, giving the user the ability to set temperature and
print parameters, determining the quality of the printed product and the speed of the process.
The result of slicing is a text file in .gcode format containing all the coordinates of the movements, and the commands
that the printer will execute.
Open the slicing software (eg Simplify3D) and load the .fff profile.
Load the .stl model and set the print parameters.
Save the .gcode inside the USB and insert it in the printer or use instead the wifi network.
