
High quality – Soluble support
We advise to select this setting when:
o Your print needs support &
o You want a high quality print &
o You have a Creatr Dual extruder & soluble support material [PLA or PVA]
Here, you will need to print your object in ABS and your support material in PLA or PVA [use the
second extruder for support material]. This means that after printing, you can place your object
together with the support material in the correct solvent for your support material [see sub-
chapter Support] and your support will dissolve. This leaves a beautiful printed object without
any traces of any support material. This printing setting can only be used by the Creatr Dual
extruder.

Fast printing – No support
We advise to select this setting when:
o Your print does not need support &
o You want your print as fast as possible &
o You do not need a high quality print
Printing without support will affect the print time positively. When selecting the fast printing
option, your layers will be thicker and your print will be printed faster. This printing setting can
be used by the Creatr Single and Dual extruder.

Fast printing – Breakaway support
We advise to select this setting when:
o Your print needs support &
o You want your print as fast as possible &
o You do not need a high quality print &
o You do not have a Creatr Dual extruder or soluble support material [PLA or PVA]
When selecting the fast printing option, your layer will be thicker and your print will be printed
faster. By choosing Breakaway support, you will be able to breakaway the support material after
printing. Depending on your requirements, you will need to perform finishing techniques. This
printing setting can be used by the Creatr Single and Dual extruder.
