3.3 File transfer and removal
A job file must be transferred to the printer every time a new print job is run. The file type for the
3Z Series printers must have an extension of .3zp. for the 3Z Pro, 3zm for the 3Z Max and .3zs
for a 3Z Studio. An example for the 3Z Pro would be Customer job.3zp.
There are two methods used to transfer the file to the printer: Via Flash Drive, or via a network
connection.
3.3.1 File Transfer via Flash drive.

4. The newly loaded file is then automatically checked for errors.
Upon successful completion of a file transfer, the file icon will
display a green check next to it.
