Resuming Production After Printing has Stopped

Printer mode
DOC-13025 Rev. A
If the printing process is interrupted, Objet Studio stops sending slices to
the printer. This can happen, for example, if the printing material runs out
in the middle of a print job, and you don't replace the empty cartridge
immediately. After the printer changes to Standby or Idle mode, you need to
resume printing from the Job Manager screen of Objet Studio.
After printing stops, the printer goes into Standby mode, when heating of
print heads is reduced. About 10 hours later, the printer goes into Idle mode,
when heating of print heads is stopped.
To continue printing the model:
1. If the printer is in offline mode, switch it to online mode by clicking the
red button at the bottom of the printer interface (see figure 6‐3 on
page 3).
The button changes from red to green (see figure 6‐4 on page 6).
2. If you don't know why printing has stopped, make sure that the
connection between the printer and the server computer is active.
3. In the Job Manager screen of Objet Studio, click the Resume icon
4. In the Continue from Slice dialog box that appears, confirm the slice
number, after checking the printer interface.

5. If, for any reason, the correct number does not appear in the dialog
box, enter the number and click
