○ : ON : OFF NOTE : It is recommended to only turn off the ∃DISON PRO when it is NOT in use. 3. Once you see the LCD display as shown in the picture, load filament and level your the printing bed for the first time. You can load or unload filament, or adjust the horizontality of the printing bed by selecting the concerned menu Utilities.

Page 11: D1 Filament Loading And Unloading
Getting started : Filament Loading and Leveling the Printing Bed Filament Loading and Unloading • When loading 1. Go to the LCD panel and select Utilities > Filament Loading. Select Load Right or Load Left depending on which side you want to load the filament.
Page 12 Filament Loading and Leveling the Printing Bed Filament Loading and Unloading (Continued) • When Unloading 1. To remove the filament from the extruder, select Utilities> Filament Loading and select Unload Right or Unload Left depending on which side you want to remove the filament. 2.
Page 13 Leveling the Printing Bed and Filament Loading Leveling the Printing Bed(Continued) Leveling before 3D printing is so crucial that it can influence the quality of the print-out. If the printing bed is too far from the extruder’s nozzles, or if one part of the bed is farth er away from the nozzles than another part, your 3D prints might not stick to the bed.

Leveling the Printing Bed and Filament Loading Leveling the Printing Bed(Continued) When using Auto-Leveling • 1. Place the A4 size paper first before using Auto-leveling functions. Select Utilities > Auto-Leveling in the display menu. NOTE : The thickness of A4 size paper is about 0.1mm and this paper is used in leveling the bed to keep 0.1mm space between the nozzle and the printing bed.

Making a print with CreatorK 8 CreatorK 8 Overview Rokit Inc. has developed CreatorK 8 to help its users to easily convert STL and OBJ files into G Code, X3G (Firmware ver. 8.1) format that can be 3D printed with this 3D printer. You can always expect the best output by changing a variety of settings on CreatorK 8.
Page 16 Once you opened CreatorK 8, select Machine > Machine Type. You should select corresponding Machine Type of 3DISON single, 3DISON duo, 3DISON MULTI, 3DISON PRO or 3DISON H700. 4. In order to select the language displayed on this software, please refer to the below images(it shows how to change Korean into English).
Page 17 Making a print with CreatorK 8 How to use CreatorK 8 (Continued) Basically, it is recommended to use SD card to save .x3g file for 3D printing for safety in case of power outage. However, you can also print directly on your CreatorK by connecting your computer to the printer with the USB cable without saving and using SD card.

[Standard Leveling], adjust a round knob underneath the printing bed, and properly adjust the gap between the output board and the nozzle. This problem can be easily solved if Auto Leveling function of Edison PRO is used (See page 11 in the instruction Manual).
Page 24 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting (FAQ) (Continued) The temperature of the printing bed may also be a cause preventing the printed object from being properly attached to the output board, which can be solved by setting a proper temperature of heated bed catering to the material to be used. In general, the temperature for PLA is in the range of 60℃...
Page 25 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting (FAQ) (Continued) Material Is it possible to use material purchased from other companies? We recommend that you use a certified genuine filament in order to guarantee a stable output and product protection. You might not be able to get after-sales service benefits if non-genuine filament is used.
Page 26: Annex1. Exchanging The Extruder For The Metal Clay Printing
∃DISON Metal Clay Printing In case of the premium ∃DISON PRO, metal kit comes with the printer. Final product is made by the process of 3D printing the metal clay through the nozzle and then firing the metal clay. For this interesting 3D printing, you should first open the metal kit.
Page 27 ① First, open the box and take the metal extruder out of the box. Release 2 bolts on the base part and separate the extruder installed in ∃DISON PRO. Pull all of the cables out of the PCB and keep the bunch of nozzles separately.
Page 28 Attach the Extended Stopper to the lower part of Z axis to make the printing bed stop at the fixed distance for metal pri nting. (Use stopper in the image1 for ∃DISON Multi and use stopper in the image2 for ∃DISON PRO. They differ in length.) Image1 Image2 ⑥...
