Where to start?
Ask a staff member to help you if it's your first time using the 3D printer.
Open CURA from the desktop shortcut. CURA is the software program you use to execute 3D prints (slicer). Click the file folder to upload your 3D file. Make sure that your PLA is selected as your filament type.
Maintaining and Troubleshooting the Printers
The LulzBot printers contain a glass plate with an adhesive covering. To maintain the glass plate, print the 3-D objects on different areas of the work-plane. Within the Cura software, move the object to the left, right or front of the work-plane (plate) before printing. Do not print objects in the middle of the plate each time. This will preserve and protect the glass and not wear out one section of the work-plane.
The LulzBot manufacturer offers printer maintenance and troubleshooting tips on the company website. Additionally, certain 3-D models are not designed properly and fail to print. For more information about handling 3-D models, view the Cura software procedures on the bottom right side of this page.
