7 Printing
● Make sure that the
nozzle
and the bed are heated to the desired temperature. If you
forget to
preheat
the
printing
nozzle
and the bed before
printing,
the
printer
will
automatically check the temperatures of the
nozzle
and the bed;
printing
will start
when desired temperature is reached it can take several minutes. However, we
recommend preheating the
printer
beforehand as described in the chapter
6.3.8
Loading the filament into the extruder
.
Do not let the preheated printer idle. When a printer is preheated and nonprinting
material in an extruder degrades over time it may cause the nozzle to jam up.
● Watch the first few printed layers to be sure
filament
has attached to the bed
properly
(5 to 10 minutes).
● Press the LCDknob and choose the
from SD
option from menu, press to
confirm and pick the desired
model
model_name.gcode
. Printer will start
printing
the
object.
The
filename (.gcode) must not contain any special characters
otherwise the
printer
is not able to display the file on the LCD. If you remove the SD while printing,
printer will pause automatically. When you reinsert the SD, press the LCDknob and
choose “Continue” option. Confirm and printing will resume.
7.1 Removing objects from the printer.
● When printing is finished let the nozzle and heatbed cool down before removing the
printed object. Always handle the printed objects when temperature of the bed and
nozzle drop to the room temperature, when the bed is hot objects are very hard to
remove. Pull the bed towards you and remove the object gently.
● If you experience any troubles removing the object (especially the small ones) you
can use a flat tool like a spatula
with rounded corners
to prevent damage of PEI
.
Slide the spatula under the corner of the object and gently push, until the print pops
of.
