To change print settings on the TRONXY XY-3:
1. Start Code: Overwrite the start code in your slicer software (e.g., Cura) by copying and pasting the new code.
2. Nozzle Size: - Choose the nozzle size (e.g., 0.4 mm, 0.6 mm) based on your printing needs. - For 0.6 mm nozzle, set the line width to 0.63 mm. - For TPU filament, set the line width to 0.67 mm.
3. Model Settings: - Move, scale, rotate, or mirror models using the mouse. - Use right-click to rotate, left-click to move, and scroll to zoom.
4. Parameter Settings: - Thickness: Set according to nozzle size (e.g., 0.2 mm for 0.4 mm nozzle). - Print Temperature: PLA = 200℃, ABS = 240℃. - Platform Temperature: PLA = 45℃, ABS = 80℃. - Adhere Type: Use to improve first-layer adhesion. - Filament Diameter: 1.75 mm. - Print Speed: Recommended 60 mm/s; avoid setting too fast to maintain print quality.
5. Bed Leveling: - Use manual leveling with paper to set the initial nozzle height. - Then perform auto calibration using the printer’s sensor.
These steps can be done using the printer screen and slicer software interface.
