1.3 Good 3D Printing Practices
Please refer to these steps during every print to ensure the best quality.
Before Printing
1. Ensure your GCODE le is correctly setup, lament diameter is set to 1.75mm and correct
temperature settings for the material you are using (refer to table 3.3.1, page 24)
2. Check all cables and connectors are connected
3. Check that Heated Print Bed is level and approximately 0.1mm from the nozzle
4. Check that Heated Print Bed is clean and dust free and nozzle does not have excess material
stuck to it
During Printing
1. Closely monitor the rst layer being printed – Most problems will occur in the rst layer. If
problems occur, stop the 3D Printer Touch at the power outlet
2. Do not leave the 3D Printer Touch unattended while in operation
3. Keep hands clear while machine is operating
After Printing
1. Wait for the Heated Print Bed and Extruder to cool down
2. Carefully remove 3D Object using the supplied scraper. Never use Scraper towards your body.
Keep Scraper evenly at when scraping to avoid damage to the Heated Print Bed. Damaged
Heated Print Bed will aect adhesion for future prints
3. Store 3D Printer Touch in a clean, dry environment
