D | Printing on Gigabot® X
You are almost ready, 3D printing ninja! There are two ways to make Gigabot
®
X print
gcode; via USB or a web browser. This section will cover how to print via USB. For
instructions on how to set up printing via web browser, see Section G.
For your first print, you will print a pre-loaded file on the USB drive using the touchscreen
and the provided Ultrafuse rPET pellets. Later in Section F we will show you how to
generate your own gcode.
Gigabot
®
X requires certain preparations to be made with the heated bed and enclosure
before printing in order to properly print the material you are using. Examples of common
materials and their necessary preparations are listed below:
PLA
●
Enclosure open (remove at least 2 enclosure hood panels)
●
Bed clean or thin layer of glue stick or Magigoo Original
PETG
●
Glue stick on bed
●
Enclosure optional
ABS
●
Very clean bed surface. Clean bed with damp rag (water) then isopropyl alcohol
●
For large parts: Very clean surface as above, then apply Magigoo Original
●
Enclosure fully shut
The full “Material Printing Guide” is found on our Knowledge Base here:
Note that at the start of each print, Gigabot
®
X will heat the bed and nozzle(s), and then
home each axis. Be sure to share what you print in the "Show and Tell" section of our
forum, at https://re3d.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/200275793-Show-Tell.
