3.3. FIRST SLICE
6. Bed Temperature
If the printer has a heated bed then this parameter may be set. As with
the extruder temperature, the value will depend on the material used. A
rule of thumb is that PLA requires 60
◦
C and ABS requires 85
◦
C.
Note: One may choose to control the bed temperature manually from
the printer controller. In this case the temperature can be set to zero.
