Software Profiles And References - Filament Innovations BFP-ICARUS Series Operating Manual

Software Profiles and References

The BPF-ICARUS line of 3D Printers can be used with any slicer, but we
strongly recommend Cura or Simplify3D. There will be a MicroSD card inserted on
the bottom right of the touchscreen for offline printing and it will include files for
the printer. This MicroSD card will include a Cura profile, Simplify3D profile,
Reprap Firmware operating system, and a PDF copy of this manual. Insert this
MicroSD card into your computer (SD adapter is included) and load the respective
profiles. There is one profile for Cura and one for Simplify3D.
 Cura
o Under the Manage Profiles area, you will import the Cura profile via
Settings – Profile – Manage Profiles.
o You will then add your designated machine into Cura under Settings
– Printer – Add Printer. Reference photos below: Note that the Z
height in the pictures if for an ICARUS-X unit, change it to 610mm for
an ICARUS unit. Please be sure all Starting and Ending gCodes match
what is shown below – this is critical!
