Preparing for Printing

Make sure the printer switched on
1
and connected to a computer. Click
the "Maintenance" button in the
software.
Choose ABS or the material you
2
choose from the dropdown material
list, and input the filament weight.
Click "Extrude". The print head will
3
start to heat up. About five 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 filament into the
4
small hole on the print head. The
filament will be fed into the print
head automatically when it reaches
the extruder gear inside the print
head.
Check the nozzle for plastic
5
extrusion. If plastic is coming out
from the nozzle, it means the
filament is loaded correctly and the
printer is ready for printing. (The
extrusion will stop automatically
after a while.)
