Slicing
Once you have a 3D model to print, it must be
processed with slicer software. The slicer takes
a 3D model and breaks it into layers (slices), con-
verting each into a series of G-code commands
that instruct the printer how to move. The end
result is a text-based .GCODE file that your printer
can read.
To generate G-code in slicer software:
1. Insert SD card into USB adapter, then insert
adapter into computer.
2. Open Grizzly Winware slicer software.
3. Select "Open File" icon (see Figure 13), then
navigate to and select .STL file to print. A
visualization of 3D model will appear in object
viewer.
4. Adjust model based on your printing needs.
Refer to
Manipulating Model on Page 22
and
Adjusting Print Settings on Page 23 for
more detailed information.
5. Select the "Prepare" button (see Figure 14).
It will take a few seconds to prepare the file.

Note: We recommend saving file to computer
hard drive, then moving it to SD card in order to
minimize chance of file corruption.
