BED PREPARATION
The bed preparation process ensures that the filament will stick to the printer bed. This process requires 3M Scotch Blue Painters
Tape and a razor blade (optional).
1. Remove any old tape that needs to be replaced.
2. Apply the new Scotch Blue painters tape to the bed to replace the tape that was removed.
3. Gently press down on the new tape to smooth out the edges. Ensure there are no bubbles in the tape. Use a razor blade to
trim the edges of the tape to the dimensions of the bed (optional).
4. If printing with ABS, apply a layer of glue (normal glue stick) over the area to be printed on. Allow this layer to dry before
printing.
