3D Fun Printz Pen Holder User manual

Cricut Maker/Air Explore series compatible Universal Pen Adapter
Thank you for purchasing the 3D Fun Printz Pen Holder
There are some tips below to get the best out of it.
Most importantly. The Pen Holder is partly made from PLA as it is a natural plastic originating
from corn starch and is recyclable. For these reasons it does not like heat.
Please don’t leave it in the sun, on a hot windowsill, on or near a radiator or anywhere else with
a lot of heat.
Please also keep away from children and animals. PLA can be sharp when broken.
NEVER TRY AND ADJUST THE SCREW WHILE THE HOLDER IS IN YOUR MACHINE. YOU
WILL DAMAGE YOUR MACHINE. ALWAYS FULLY REMOVE THE HOLDER BEFORE
ADJUSTMENT.
DO NOT FLEX THE TIPS BY HAND. THEY ARE DESIGNED TO MOVE VERY SLIGHTLY TO
ACCEPT A PEN NIB. FORCING A PEN BODY ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE TIP OR
FLEXING THEM BY HAND MAY BREAK THEM
There are 2 pen holders in the kit. One is marked with an “S”and has a bigger opening for
pens. As a general rule of thumb if a pen fits in the non “S”holder you should use that one.
Only use the “S”holder if the pen is too big for the non “S”holder. This is especially
important on the Maker machine as the design prevents the common issue of pens rubbing
on the frame of the machine.

You will need to remove the Cricut pen holder from the left hand accessory head. To
remove this undo the latch and gently press upwards on the pen holder from below. It should
pop out with a little pressure. Please see my product youtube video for a demo.

To fit a pen into the holder clip the alignment clip onto the holder as shown. It should remain
loosely in place without holding. There are tabs that fit into the holes on the pen holder
Now insert your pen so the nib just touches the small recess inside the alignment clip you just
fitted. Once the nib is touching gently tighten down the thumbscrew.
The thumbscrew does not need to be tightened down hard. Just enough to grip the pen
Now insert the pen and holder into your machine

DO NOT FORCE THE LATCH. IT SHOULD BE NO HARDER TO
LATCH THEN WITH ANY OTHER CRICUT ACCESSORY. IF IT IS
STIFF REMOVE THE HOLDER, ADJUST AND REINSERT
You may need to adjust the material type on your machine to get satisfactory results.
