6.2 3D Print With The ZPrinter 350

The following instructions are for the ZPrinter 350 only. If you have a ZPrinter 450 or 650, see Section 6.3

“3D Print With The ZPrinter 450 and 650”. All other printer types are described in Section 6.4 “3D Print for

Older Printers”.

1. After confirming the printer and powder settings for the current print job, select File > 3D Print, or

select the icon on the Toolbar.

The Printer Status dialog opens.

2. ZPrint checks each item in the Printer Status dialog prior to printing to ensure there are enough mate-

rials to complete the current build. See Chapter 7 of this guide for instructions if you see a message to

Add Powder, Add Binder, Change Print Head, Raise Build Bed, or Close Cover.

3. Click the Details button to view usage information specific to the print head, the binder, and the pow-

der levels.

4. Check or uncheck your Print Job Option for the current build.

5. The Print button is enabled when each item displays OK. Click Print to start your build. After you click

Print:

• The printer will automatically fill the Build Bed with powder and spread a layer to ensure the top

surface is smooth.

• The printer will service the print head.
