 250 Quick Start Guide

This Guide is intended as a handy reference for users who are 
familiar with their 3D printer and just need to print a part. The 
Guide assumes that: 

The ZPrinter is properly installed and running, and that no 
errors are displayed on the ZPrinter control panel.

The ZPrint™ Software is installed and running, and is config-
ured properly for your printer and choice of powder. For 
ZPrint installation instructions, see the 

ZPrint™ Software 

Manual

.

The printer is loaded with enough materials to complete the 
build.

The printer is up to date on its routine maintenance.

The printer is connected to the same network as the com-
puter that is running ZPrint. 

For more details, please refer to the 

ZPrinter 150 / ZPrinter 

250 User Manual

. The Manual is included on the installation CD
