connect to. This can be done through Settings > Printers > Manage
Printers > Machine Settings > Port > (select desired port).
Pausing Mid-Print
You will notice after you click the print button through Cura, the pause
button to the right will become active. When selected, it will pause the
print and automatically move your print head away from your object. This
will allow color changes or material changes mid print.
Automatic Bed Leveling
Before each print your TAZ Workhorse will go through a wiping and a
probing procedure in order to determine the slope/tilt of your bed. If your
nozzle is dirty or not cleaned properly, this will prevent the printer from
being able to create an electrical contact with the corners. Your TAZ
Workhorse will automatically retry the wiping and probing procedure if
this happens, up to a maximum of three times. If three consecutive wipes
and probes have failed, the printer will stop and a warning will sound.
When this happens, clean you nozzles manually while at temperature using
the Scotch-Brite
TM
pad included in the tool kit. If this is happening
consistently, you should replace the wiping pad and/or adjust your wiping
and probing temps for that specic lament.
Printing from SD Card
While in the prepare screen, load your model into Cura with the proper
lament and prole selected. Next, insert the included SD card into your
computer. In the lower right hand corner of the prepare screen, a drop
down option will appear near “save to le.” Choose “save to removable
drive” and name your .gcode le appropriately. Once saved, select “eject”
from the pop up window.
Start Print
Thanks to the TAZ Workhorses automatic bed leveling system, it is now
time to kick o the print! Insert the USB Stick into the printer. Through
the LCD screen go to: USB Drive > Select Desired .gcode File >
