1.1
Cura
Operation
instructions
Overview
We
recommend
that
new
users
start
with
Cura
as
it
includes
a
slicing
engine.
Slicers
These
programs
take
the
M200
model
(typically
STL/OBJ)
and
determine
the
3
D
printer
tool
path
based
on
the
options
selected.
The
slicing
engine
uses
the
nozzle
diameter,
printing
and
movement
speeds,
layer
height
and
other
variables
to
determine
the
coordinates
where
it
needs
to
move
and
the
rates
at
which
it
will
do
so.
This
information
is
exported
out
of
the
program
as
a
G
Code
file.
The
G
Code
file
is
a
plain-text
file
with
a
series
of
text-based
codes
and
a
list
of
the
complete
X,Y
and
Z
axis
coordinates
used
for
printing
the
3
D
model.
We
recommend
that
new
users
start
with
Cura
as
it
includes
the
printer
host
as
well.
