8.5.7 EZ Print Mode Tab

Preferences - EZ Print Mode Tab

In EZ Print Mode, the process of printing a part is stream-

lined. Setup the EZ Print Mode tab and choose the

options you want to have ZPrint prompt you with before

you start a print. Be sure to check the EZ Print checkbox

on the Open dialog, to activate EZ Print Mode in ZPrint.

Using Fast Rendering for Huge Parts: Choose to auto-

matically use fast rendering, normal rendering, or to

prompt you before rendering for the specified number of

facets. By default, the Fast Rendering option is selected.

Inverting Non-Agreeing Normals (for .stl files):

Choose whether to automatically invert normals, to not

invert normals, or to be prompted before inverting nor-

mals for .stl files. By default, the Invert Normals option is

selected.

Make Fixture: Choose whether to always create a fix-

ture, to automatically create a fixture (which is deter-

mined when the base of a part is not a flat surface), to

never build a fixture, or to prompt you before building a

fixture. By default, the Auto option is selected.

Auto-saving Builds Before Printing: Check Save builds

before printing to have ZPrint automatically save the build

files to the specified directory, prior to printing. This option

is checked by default and the default folder specified

resides in your local directory.

After Printing is Complete: Enter a time for your parts to

remain in the Build Bed after printing. There is a count-

down timer after the part is printed that will tell you how

many minutes have lapsed since the print job finished

and when your part will be ready for removal. The default

is 60 minutes.
