1. Uses LEDs of different colors to indicate different system conditions
2. Allows the operator to perform printer functions through combinations of pressing and holding down the button.

HARMFUL IRRITANT WARNING: WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, DISPOSABLE NITRILE GLOVES, AND
GOGGLES WHILE FOLLOWING THESE STEPS.
NOTE: Ensure that the elevator is at its upper-limit position before beginning this procedure.
CAUTION: If a leak/spill occurs inside the printer, do not run the machine. The projector's UV radiation
will harden material on the glass print base and any other surface it touches, making it very hard to
remove. A long cleaning swab and Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) will help clean up any spilled,
uncured material.
NOTE: The printer will only hold one build le at a time in its memory. If you try to load another build le
from 3D Sprint, it will overwrite the most-recent build le written to the machine. Once the printer begins
printing, you will not be able to submit any print jobs via 3D Sprint or via USB.
Print via 3D Sprint
For instructions on preparing a build le in 3D Sprint, please open the
icon in 3D Sprint. Once you have sent the print job to the printer:
