Tray Validation
Beforesendingajobtotheprinterforproduction,youshouldcheckthatthe
trayis“valid”andcanbeprinted.
Note: Becauseoftheuniquecharacteristicsofeachtypeofmodelingmaterial,
makesurethatthecorrectmaterialisselectedbeforeperformingTrayValidation.
Tovalidatethatthetraycanbeprinted:
➢ OntheTray Settingsribbon,intheBuild Processgroup,click .
or—
FromtheToolsmenu,selectPlacementValidation.
Ifthetrayisnotvalid,thecoloroftheproblematicmodelsonthetray
changesaccordingtoapre-setcode.
