3Z Organizer – 3Z Print – 3Z Works – 3Z Analyzer

There are four separate, Windows based applications programs associated with the 3Z Series
Model Making System and its operation. They are all installed and run on the operator’s
workstation and constitute an integral part of the model making process. Details regarding the
installation and operation of the 3Z Works, 3Z Analyzer, 3Z Print and 3Z Organizer programs
are provided in the 3Z Works User’s Manual, P/N 840202, which is available on the Solidscape
3Z Series Software Flash Drive, P/N 945087

WARNING: Be sure to install 3Z Organizer, 3Z Print, 3ZWorks, and 3Z Analyzer

and from the FLASH DRIVE provided with your new Model Making
System to ensure that the latest versions of software and
configuration files are installed on your PC.



3Z Organizer

The 3Z Organizer is the primary interface between the operator’s workstation and the
3Z Printer. The program is started and then runs invisibly in the background. When an STL,
SLC file or a folder with numerous files are dragged / copied into the 3Z Organizer Queue
folder, the file(s) are automatically retrieved and processed through the printer driver.



3Z Printer Driver

The printer driver appears and functions similar to other windows based printer drivers.
The operator first selects the desired printing parameters and then selects the PRINT
button. The printer driver processes the file and then automatically sends the completed file
to the desired printer or a pre-defined file folder.



3Z Works

3Z Works is a Windows application program that runs on the operator’s workstation. It
allows the operator access to more detailed controls with regard to file preparation. Controls
include positioning and orienting model files and other advanced operations. The resultant
.3zp or .3zs file can then be sent to the printer system via the printer driver or a USB flash
drive. 3Z Works automatically generates all support structures required to build the model.
