📤 Sending the Print
The process of sending a print file to the printer depends on the machine we are using. Depending on the connection type, there are two main ways to send the print job.
🔹 1️⃣ Sending via Wi-Fi
📌 If the printer is connected via Wi-Fi and linked to our software account:
✅ From the top menu bar, select "Send Print".
✅ The print job is sent directly to the printer.
🔹 2️⃣ Sending via SD Card
📌 If we want to use an SD card:
✅ Select "Export Sliced Plate" to save the G-code onto an SD card.
✅ Insert the SD card into the printer.
✅ From the printer's screen, select the file and start the print.
⚠️ Warning! Do NOT Start the Print Directly from the Software!
🚨 For safety and better print quality, ALWAYS check the printer before starting!
🔍 Things to check before printing:
✅ Is the print bed clean? If not, wipe it with alcohol.
✅ For multicolor prints, are the correct colors loaded?
✅ Is the correct filament type installed in the printer?
👉 For these reasons, NEVER start the print directly from the software!
✅ The correct process:
1️⃣ Send the print file to the printer.
2️⃣ Go to the printer and double-check the print bed and settings.
3️⃣ Select the file from the printer's screen.
4️⃣ Start the print only when everything is set up correctly!
🎯 Final Thoughts
✅ If your printer is connected via Wi-Fi, send the print job directly.
✅ If using an SD card, export the G-code and load it manually.
✅ Always check the print bed and filament before starting the print!
🚀 Now we’re ready to monitor the print and see the final result! 🖨️🎉
