Page 1 User Guide INTRODUCTION The ProJet® MJP 5600 3D printer system is a Multi-Jet Printer (MJP) printer. The solid imaging 3D printer produces plastic prototype parts from 3D solid Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models and through the 3D printer system client software. The parts are generated in a rapid prototype (RP) environment. The primary features of the printer are the user interface, build chamber including the print engine, and the material delivery module (MDM), which contains the materials and waste bag.

8/11/22, 10:47 AM User Guide Electrical WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE EXISTS INSIDE THE 3D PRINTER SYSTEM. INJURY OR DEATH FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN RESULT IF YOU REMOVE THE 3D PRINTER SYSTEM’S EXTERNAL PANELS. PANELS SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED FOR SERVICE BY AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL. TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK, THE 3D PRINTER SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE UNLESS EXTERNAL PANELS ARE INSTALLED.
Page 5: Material Handling
8/11/22, 10:47 AM User Guide Support Material, cured or uncured, is not hazardous. To nd out facility disposal requirements, contact an approved waste disposal provider. Your local environmental regulatory agency should have a list of quali ed providers. You will need to give disposal service provider a copy of the build material Global Health and Safety sheets, and possibly other forms included in the Appendix of your VisiJet Post Processing Guide,...

Page 8: Waste Removal
8/11/22, 10:47 AM User Guide Advise the service provider involved of the spilled material, and provide other material information prior to contact with the material. Advise them of disposal requirements for build material and clean-up products if build material (uncured) is the spilled material. Tools contaminated with build material should be cleaned prior to reuse.
Page 9 8/11/22, 10:47 AM User Guide Always check bottle’s expiration date before loading. Do not load bottles into 3D printer system if they are about to expire. When 3D printer system detects an expired bottle, it aborts the build and rejects the bottle if the expiration date has expired for support material or more than one year past the expiration date for build material.
Page 10 Simultaneously use Two Materials for Part Building The ProJet® MJP 5600 provides the simultaneous use of two build materials along with a support material. The 3D printer system has a total of four material delivery modules, (MDM). Each MDM holds two bottles of material.

AT A GLANCE The ProJet® MJP 5600 Printer The ProJet® MJP 5600 is a multi-jet 3D printing system. The solid imaging 3D printer system produces plastic prototype parts from 3D solid Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models. File types include: .stl, .ctl, .obj, .ply, .zpr, .zbd, .amf, .wrl, .3ds, .fbx, .mjpddd, .bdz, .iges, .igs, .step, .stp and .slc, The primary components are the touchscreen, build chamber, material delivery modules (MDMs), and waste drawers. ...
Page 13 The support material is delivered in 1.75 kg. plastic bottles and the part material is delivered in 2 kg. plastic bottles. The bottles are placed in the machine’s MDM. The ProJet® MJP 5600 allows for the simultaneous use of two different part materials.
Page 14: Build Chamber
Build Chamber The gure below shows the ProJet® MJP 5600 with the build chamber door open. The user will access the build chamber to install a print platform before each build and to remove the completed parts at the completion of a build. The build chamber door is equipped with an interlock which prevents the user from accessing the build chamber during a build.
Page 15 3D SPRINT is a client workstation software package that is used to manipulate the .stl, .ctl, .obj etc. les that are subsequently sent to the ProJet® MJP 5600 as print jobs. Print jobs cannot be submitted locally (at the 3D printer system itself), and must be submitted through 3D SPRINT.
