Figure 7-4: Eden interface during printing
When printing begins, Job Manager sends seven slices to the Eden printer.
This is the standard buffer between the Job Manager and the printer. As
each slice is printed, the Job Manager sends another slice to the printer.
Depending on the size of the model(s) to be produced, printing can take
between several hours to several days. As long as there is enough model
and support material in the supply cartridges, printing proceeds
automatically until the job is finished.
Resuming Production After Printing has Stopped
If the printing process is interrupted for any reason, Job Manager stops
sending slices to the Eden printer.
To continue printing the model:
1. Switch the printer to online mode by clicking the red button at the
bottom of the Eden interface (see figure 7 ‐ 2 on page 7 ‐ 3).
The button changes from red to green (see figure 7 ‐ 3 on page 7 ‐ 5).
2. Make sure that the computer network connecting the printer and Job
Manager server is active.

During printing, the server computer must remain on and it must
communicate with the Eden printer. Do not log-off Windows until printing is
finished.
