Preparing to print
1. Now that your model is ready, you can click the "Prepare to
Print!" button in the bottom left corner
2. Now you will see Simplify3D in "Preview mode"
3. You will see different "Build Statistics" that will tell the estimate
of how long your print will take, amount of material used, or how
much the part will cost to make with a certain material.
4. If you are connected to your printer with a USB cord, then you
can click "Begin printing over USB" when you are ready to print.
5. If you would rather use the SD card, you can save your G-code
to the disk and print in standalone mode.
