Chapter 7: Basic Pr inting
This chapter will provide a step-by-step guide on turning a 3D model into a physical
reality. Before proceeding, it is recommended that you go over prior chapters on
loading/unloading filament, leveling the build plate, and the functions and capabilities
of FlashPrint.
There are two modes of printing: single-extrusion and dual-extrusion. With single
extrusion, you can choose the print head to use for making the print. Dual extrusion is
useful if you want to print dual colors or complex models that require supporting
material.
There are three connection methods in order to print using the Dreamer. All methods,
which include USB, SD card, and Wi-Fi are covered in this chapter.
