Slice and Save¶
Slice 3D Models¶
Once entering the Slice page, the 3D model will be sliced immediately. After generating slicing images, the Generate Images popup shows on the page.
- Clicking Save, and then save the slice file on your PC.
- Clicking Print to print the slice file.
- Clicking Send to send the sliced file to the queue of the selected printer.
Note
- If the selected printer in the print settings is not available, the popup window will not display the Print and Send buttons. If you still wish to use this functionality, please add a printer.
- You can move the sliced file to the printer queue using a USB flash drive.
Many users are used to save the slicing file directly and copy it to the USB flash drive for printing. In fact, you can choose to send the file to selected printer or even print directly through the popup if the related button is available.
Save Slicing Files¶
Saving model function is always available. Follow these steps to save slicing files:
-
Check the name of file. You can customize it by clicking and inputting a new one.
-
Check the printer and material. If there is any wrong, you should shut down the popup and enter Print Setting page for modification.
-
Check the saving path. You can replace the default path by clicking and selecting a new folder.
-
Click Save to save the slicing file as set.
