Printing
The MatterControl slice engine has Simple, Intermediate and Advanced settings, which
can be selected in the Settings window under the Quality and Material presets. These
settings filter the amount of control and print settings you have when starting your print. !
The Simple setting has one menu and allows for changing the layer height and the fill density
of your print, as well as generating support material and a raft.!
The Intermediate setting allows you to have more control in your Print, Filament, and
Printer settings. In your Print settings, you can now control the type of infill, number of
perimeters, add a skirt and control your support material generated. In your Filament
settings, you can manually change the diameter of your filament, extrusion and bed
temperatures. In your Printer settings, you can change the parameters of the build plate and
manage your dual extruder settings. !
When using the Advanced
settings, you have full control of
your print with changing print
speeds, repairing bad edges,
creating a wipe tower for your dual
extruders, refine filament retraction,
and change nozzle diameter to
name a few.!
We recommend that every user start with the Simple mode and progress from there. !
The MatterControl website has an excellent library of each slice settings in MatterControl.
