Setting up your first print in Composer
Watch the below video to learn about starting a new print in Composer.
Before starting a new print ensure you have correctly set up your printer.
It is essential that your printer is correctly set up before starting a print to avoid failures.
Access printer via web interface
The printer’s web interface allows you to interact with the printer from the comfort of your desk.
Stirring material
A crucial step in starting a print is ensuring the material is stirred.
Pigments in resin will settle over time making this such an important step.
Starting a print
When a build has been submitted to the printer, follow the steps below to start a print.
