How Does It Work?

3D prints are printed in layers. To get it to print, however, you will have to slice it first.

Slicing is when you upload your print into your device, and then your slicing software will check the ‘layers’ to make sure it is printable. After it makes sure that your print is printable, it will send your print to your printer. Your printer will then download the print and start getting ready for it.

Filament will start coming out of the nozzle. The nozzle is where the filament comes out and starts flowing down. The head of the printer, where the nozzle is located, will start moving and start printing your print out, layer by layer.
