Printer Management

PreviousPatternNextList Printers

Last updated 3 years ago

C6 comes loaded with FabMachines printer settings and has the ability to add custom third party printers as well. In case your printer is not present in the list, adding a custom printer might be the solution. Custom printers are loaded with an empty machine profile, leaving all parameters to be manually adjusted.

Following pages will show in detail how to list existing printers, select printer for slicing, creating, editing and removing printers.

Custom printer configurations and their effects are not tested. Please use the parameters carefully as C6 is not responsible and does not provide support for third party printers.

The video below shows an overview of the available settings and a rough guide on how to handle them.
