2.2 PREPARING THE 3D PRINTER
If the printer is off, switch it on by pressing and releasing the power ON/OFF switch. The gantry will
move slowly as it orients itself. We recommend that you leave the printer on at all times—in sleep
mode the printer will exercise the print heads during periods of inactivity to prevent clogging.
1. Wait for the green online light indicating that the power-up procedure has completed. The warm
up process should take between 60 and 90 seconds.
2. Take machine offline by pressing and releasing the online button.
3. Open the top cover to gain access to the build area.
Technical Tip -
LEAVE THE MACHINE ON! This allows the printer to perform a periodic self maintenance.
