Important Notice
Wear safety goggles before using the printer.
Do not let children operate this device without adult supervision. Moving parts may cause serious injury.
Please place and use the printer in a well ventilated area. The process of printing will produce a small amount of non-toxic odor. Having a well ventilated area will ensure a more comfortable environment. For a complete guide on precautions, clean-up procedures, handling procedures, storage procedures, and suggestions on protection, see the "Resin Care" section in your product manual.
If unused for more than a week, pigments in the resin may settle at the bottom of the cartridge or the tank. Shake/stir well before using.
For the best printing performance, resin should be used up within 3 months after purchasing and within 1 month of opening. Resin should preferably be stored at temperatures between
10-32°C (50-89.6°F).
Please ensure that the recommended operating conditions are adhered to. (Operating
temperature 18-28℃ (64.4-82.4℉)/ humidity 40-80% RH); If a different operating temperature
is printed on the label on the resin bottle, please adhere to recommended conditions on the label.)
Due to the nature of the printing technology and material, the resin tank may develop cloudy regions overtime where the UV laser cures the resin and may lead to print fails. Please avoid printing over the cloudy area in the tank. Moving the print location around the platform can help prolong the life of the tank.
Change to a new tank when over 2/3 of the
surface gets cloudy.
Use separate resin tanks for resins of different color. Mixing resins of different color may affect printing quality.
Always perform “Horizon Calibration” after changing to a new tank or a tank different the one used for last print. Be sure to empty the tank before calibrating the platform.
“AUTO FILL” is enabled by default. The resin tank is auto-filled before printing and when resin low is detected. You don’t need to fill the tank manually.
Before changing the resin bottle, please detach the transparent tube from the cap and then the black tube.
Note
Select “PRINT FROM USB” in main menu to proceed.
