Printing With Dual Extruder - Mass Portal Pharaoh XD Series User Manual

Printing with Dual Extruder

Material
When printing with your dual extruder, you need to make
sure that the materials you are printing can print at the same
temperature. The Mass Portal dual extruder only uses one
nozzle, so will be operating a one temperature. You can print
with two different colors, standard material with support material,
or even different materials if they use similar temperatures (Such
as ABS and HIPS).
Preparing Material for printing
When preparing the printer to print, using the dual extrusion
capabilities, you need to make sure that the material is properly
aligned at the beginning of the print. When inserting the
filament, watch it as it goes down the bowden tube and align
it approximately 5 mm above the grey coupling. (see Picture).
NOTE This is only needed for the first time or if you have
changed the materials. If you are printing with the same
materials then you can simply start the new G-code.
