3. Introduction to Cubicon Single
Operation
What is Cubicon Single?
Cubicon Single is an FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) type 3D printer that controls the position of an
extruder with an x/y/z axis controlling motor, uses a heating system to melt the filament supplied to the
extruder, pushes the melted filament outside the nozzle with the extruder motor, and constructs a
printed object layer by layer.
Cubicon Single greatly improves print stability by adding user-friendly and innovative functions.
Mounting of Uniquely Designed Detachable Extruder
The most important and key part of an FFF(Fused Filament Fabrication) type printer is the extruder,
which heats and melts the filament and then pushes it out of the nozzle.
Cubicon Single features our own uniquely designed detachable extruder, the first of its kind in Korea.
Using the detachable extruder maximizes the user friendliness, as the extruder can be easily removed
from the printer for service when the nozzle is plugged.As well, an extruder specific to the filament
being used can be selected to prevent the problems that can arise from using the same extruder for
different types of filament.
The detachable extruder will help create the optimum printing environment.

document or provisions and use of this document.
Auto Leveling Plus Function
The flatness and distance from the nozzle of the heating bed, which is the platform on which the
printed object is constructed, are important factors determining the quality of the printed object. The
conventional FFF printer not fully auto levels, as the user must manually or semi-manually adjust the
bed height, or even when it claims to be auto level, it was not fully auto level since the deviation is
calculated with the software and reflected in printing.
Cubicon Single features the uniqueAuto Leveling Plus function, which precisely measures the height
of the heating bed and uses it to adjust the space from the nozzle in optimal condition. Moreover, it
applies a special coating on the heating bed to eliminate the inconvenience of having to use the Kapton
tape, and thus ensures an optimum print quality and minimum maintenance.
Experience Cubicon Single’s unique Auto Leveling Plus function.
Convection Circulation Function
Cubicon Single applies the convection circulation function internally.
This function maintains a constant internal temperature and uses the filter to filter out the pollutants that
are generated during printing. It helps create a more comfortable and uniform printing environment.

Clean Filter to Ensure User Health
The filament material used by the FFF type printer is known to be harmless to the human body.
However, dusts and impurities can be generated when it is melted by heat.
Cubicon Single uses a deodorizing filter, HEPA filter and Purafil catalyst to improve the filter
performance.
> HEPA filter: 13H grade to collect 99.97% of0.3um particulate matter.
> Deodorizing filter: Filtering of harmful gas.
> Purafil catalyst: Filtering of organic compounds generated by copiers and printers.

document or provisions and use of this document.
Ergonomic and Stylish Design / Easy Operation
Cubicon Single was designed with conventional printers as the inspiration, making it a good match for
an office environment.
Moreover, it places a dial button (rotation and pushing) and push button with LED lights on the indicator
panel so that users can intuitively understand the operation without expert knowledge. In addition, the
menu is arranged around the most frequently used functions, so that the users can easily familiarize
themselves with the printer regardless of their level of previous experience with 3D printers.
Filament Detection Function
Cubicon Single has a built-in function to monitor the filament feed status so that the user can pause
printing to check the filament feed when the filament is not supplied to the extruder after the filament is
used up or cut off during printing. Printing can then be resumed after the problem is resolved.
Using this function, the user can continue printing after replacing the filament without having to start
again, even when the filament runs out in the middle of a print job.

Use of Diverse and Smart Materials
Many FFF type printers are exclusively for PLA. This is because despite being a superior material in
many respects, such as strength, reliability, ease of post-processing and coating, ABS creates some
difficult problems, such as the dusts generated when being melted, the difficulty of shaping and the
difficulty of managing the heating bed.
Cubicon Single has adopted convection ventilation, clean filter andAuto Leveling Plus functions to
support the use of both PLA and ABS. Cubicon’s Smart Spool features an untangling prevention
function to reduce the possibility of printing failure. The filament with Smart Spool label is sufficiently
tested, so that you can use it with confidence.
Although only limited colors of ABS and PLAfilament spools are currently available, new filament
colors and materials are being developed to satisfy various printing requirements of users.

5.2.2. Mounting of Filament Spool
①Prepare the filament spool to be used.
Cut off the filament sticking out of the
filament fixing hole at the center of the
spool and remove the fixing tape of the
filament.
②Push the spool door handle on the printer body in
the direction of the arrow shown in the picture to open
the door of the spool carrier.
③Slowly unwind the filament from the filament spool
and insert the filament into the filament insertion hole.
Be careful of the spool rotation/insertion direction.
④Open the top door and push the filament all the way
into the printer body so that the filament is out of the
Teflon tube.
Be careful not to bend, cut or twist the filament tube.
This may prevent the filament from being supplied
properly.
⑤Insert the filament spool into the filament rod and
push the handle until you hear a clicking sound. Close
the spool door and fix the spool.
Be careful of the spool rotation/insertion direction.
* The filament spool should be installed in the correct direction.
Mount the spool so the company logo or product sticker is shown from outside.
The filament spool is designed to supply the filament while rotating counterclockwise. If the direction is
not set correctly, there can be a problem with filament supply, which can cause the printer to malfunction.
Use the printer only after confirming that the filament is correctly mounted.
* An obstacle between the filament rod and spool interfering with the spool’s rotation will create a problem
with filament supply and cause the printer to malfunction.
Remove anyobstacle to rotation when inserting the spool into the spool rod. In particular, the silica gel
included in the spool package must be removed from the spool.
* The Teflon tube is the moving path of the filament from the spool to the extruder. Since its length is
optimized specifically for the printer, pulling the tube with excessive force will bend or twist the tube inside
the printer and interfere with filament movement, causing a malfunction. Do not bend, cut or pull the Teflon
tube with excessive force.
* When detaching the rest of filament spool from the spool carrier, pay attention to secureit and unwind it
during the storage. If the filament is unwound, it causes the twist of filament.
* Keep the rest of the filament in plastic bags not to be exposed to the external environment such as humidity
and dirt and use the filaments as fast as possible after opening.
If the filamentis exposed to the external environment for a while, the printing qualitymay get worse or even
worse, it stops extruding from the Extruder.

6.2. LCD Display of Status
When Cubicon Single is turned on or when the menu is not activated for functional setting, the current
printer status is shown on the LCD display.
[1] Extruder nozzle temperature
Current temperature / Target temperature
[2] Heating bed temperature
Current temperature / Target temperature
[3] Printer inside temperature
Current temperature / Target temperature
[4] Molding fan rotating speed
Rotating speed of the molding fan (max. 100%)
[5] File for output
Name of the output file in the SD card (in English)
[6] Printer operation status
Current printer operation status. If the printer is currently printing, the current
printing time (hh:mm) and progress rate are displayed.
* The extruder nozzle and heating bed are heated or cooled to achieve the target temperature.
* The printer’s internal temperature rises with the heat from the nozzle and heating bed when the printing
begins. Once the current temperature reaches the target temperature, the outside air is circulated to cool the
printer. To ensure safety, this product does not use a separate heater to increase the current temperature.
* The noise from the ventilation fan is generated when the convection circulation function is activated to
lower the inside temperature.
* The unit of temperature is “℃“.
* When the printing is paused, the file name and printing time are displayed on [5].
* The details of the LCD display may be different according to the firmware version.
* The extruder nozzle and heating bed are heated or cooled to achieve the target temperature.
* The printer’s internal temperature rises with the heat from the nozzle and heating bed when the printing
begins. Once the current temperature reaches the target temperature, the outside air is circulated to cool the
printer. To ensure safety, this product does not use a separate heater to increase the current temperature.
* The noise from the ventilation fan is generated when the convection circulation function is activated to
lower the inside temperature.
* For the filament, the target temperatures (heated temperatures) of the [1] extruder and [2] heating bed are
very important.
[1] If the extruder nozzle temperature is too far above or below the filament melting temperature, extrusion
quality can be poor, and an extruder malfunction may result.
The recommended filament melting temperature ([1]Extruder target temperature) is printedon the sticker of
the filament spool. Make sure that the printer is maintained at the proper temperature, byreferring to the
target temperature.
[2] The heating bed temperature also differs according to the type of filament used. The recommended
heating bed temperature for Cubicon Single is 60~70 for PLA and 110~120 for ABS. However, as the actual
temperature may differ according to the printed object, use the proper temperature accordingly. If the
heating bed temperature is not suitable for the filament being used, the printed object may not adhere to
the heating bed or the bottom output status may be defective.
Cubicon Single’s heating bed is designed to ensure that the printed object is adhered to the heating bed
when printing at a specific temperature or higher in the case of PLA/ABS filament even without the
Kapton tape, as well as to ensure that the printed object is easily removed from the bed when the
temperature drops.
