Preparing for Printing
Make sure the printer switched on
and connected to a computer. Click
the "Maintenance" button in the
software.
Choose ABS or the material you
choose from the dropdown material
list, and input the lament weight.
Click "Extrude". The print head will
start to heat up. About ve minutes,
the temperature of the print head
will reach the melting temperature,
e.g. for ABS, it is 260°C. The printer
will buzz and the print head will
start to extrude.
Gently insert the lament into the
small hole on the print head. The
lament will be fed into the print
head automatically when it reaches
the extruder gear inside the print
head.
Check the nozzle for plastic
extrusion. If plastic is coming out
from the nozzle, it means the
lament is loaded correctly and the
printer is ready for printing. (The
extrusion will stop automatically
after a while.)
