User manual

WELCOME

Welcome to the User Manual for the MakerBot Replicator 2X Experimental

3D Printer. Your MakerBot Replicator 2X is optimized for ABS, a traditional

thermoplastic that can be tricky and unpredictable. In order to achieve

great results, you will need to experiment and tinker. That’s why it’s so

crucial to take the time to learn about your new 3D printer.

In this manual, you will learn how to set up and start using your

MakerBot Replicator 2X. You will also be introduced to MakerBot

Desktop, software that prepares 3D models for printing and turns them

into instructions for your MakerBot Replicator 2X. By the time you finish

reading, you will know everything you need to start experimenting.

We are so excited to welcome you to the MakerBot community.

Let’s get started!
