System Preheating
In order to preheat the entire system, the desired temperature needs
to be set for the hotend and heated bed individually. Other than
preheating for a print, the heated bed must be preheated for Mesh
Bed Leveling, and the hotend must be preheated when changing
filament. For more information about preheating instructions when
changing filament, see the next section Filament Loading.
Steps to Preheating the Bed and Hotend
1. Press the temperature button in the "Active"
row for the hotend.
2. Use the + and – buttons to select the desired
temperature and then press the "Set" button.
3. Initiate the heating process by pressing the
hotend icon. The active temperature fields
should turn red, and heating should begin.
4. The same process is followed for preheating
the heated bed. Press the temperature
button in the "Active" row for the heated
bed, set the desired temperature, and press
the heated bed icon to initiate the process.
Alternative Method for Preheating
There are also Macros made for system
preheating ABS, ASA, Nylon, PETG, PLA, TPU and
more. When one of these is engaged, the
system will heat the heated bed first and then
the hotend. Find these under
Macros > "Pre-Heating"
Always print at the manufacturer's suggested
temperatures. Our preheating macros should be
treated as guidelines for that polymer.
