3. On the touchscreen, select the 'Load Filament' option and follow the on-screen prompts. The extruder will heat up and automatically pull the filament through.

3.2 Preparing a Model for Printing (Slicing)

3D models (typically in .Stl or .Obj format) need to be converted into G-code (.gcode) instructions that the printer can understand. This process is called slicing.

• Easyware: The included Easyware software is simple for beginners to prepare models. It supports Windows 7/10/11 and MAC (minimum 10.13).
• CURA/Simplify3D: For more control over print settings and higher quality prints, advanced users can use open-source slicers like CURA or Simplify3D.

3.3 Inici d'una impressió

1. Save the generated G-code file a la targeta TF.
2. Insert the TF card into the printer's TF card slot.
3. On the touchscreen, navigate to the 'Print' menu and select your desired G-code file.
4. Confirm the print. The printer will begin heating up and then start printing.

3.4 Removing a Finished Print

Once the print is complete and the print bed has cooled, the removable and magnetic printing platform makes it easy to detach your model.

• Carefully remove the flexible print platform from the printer.
• Gently bend the platform to release the printed object. The non-stick surface aids in detachment.
