We recommend you to use supplied software, but feel free to use different
types of programs if you feel like you are up to it, or just simply disagree.
Playful experimenting and innovating is what made Ultimaking B.V. to what it is
today.
We also supply an Usermanual where you can find a more detailed guide how
to handel the machine.
There are 2 different types of software that you will need to get your Ultimaker
printing. Some software have these combined, others do not.
First you need a slicer to create the file that containes all the parameters of a
print, called the Gcode. Secondly you need software to sent this Gcode to your
Ultimaker. In the beginning you most likely will download a file from the world
wide web to print. Plenty of these files can be found on websites like www.
youmagine.com.
One of the files that is printable is called a STL.
7.1.1.
Slicer software
As a slicer we can recommend you to use:
-Cura
The basic idea of slicing is that it converts a printable file (STL) to a code that
contains all the information to create your print. We will take you along to
create a Gcode, to print with PLA.
Cura
