SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Building the printer will require a certain amount of physical
dexterity, common sense and a thorough understanding of what you
are doing. We have provided detailed instructions to help you
assemble it easily, please download at geeetech.com.
However ultimately we cannot be responsible for your health and
safety whilst building or operating the printer, with that in mind be
sure you are confident with what you are doing prior to commencing
with building or buying. Read the entire manual to enable you to
make an informed decision.
Building and operating involves electricity, so all necessary
precautions should be taken and adhered to, the printer runs on 24V
supplied by a certified power supply, so you shouldn’t ever have to
get involved with anything over 24V but bear in mind there can still
be high currents involved and even at 24V they shouldn’t be taken
lightly.
High temperatures are involved with 3D Printing, the Extrusion
nozzle of the hot end can run about 230°C, the heated bed runs 110°C
and the molten plastic extruded will initially be at around 200°C, so
special care and attention should be made when handling these parts
of the printer during operation.
We wouldn’t recommend leaving your printer running unattended,
or at least until you are confident to do so. We cannot be held
responsible for any loss, damage, threat, hurt or other negligent result
from either building or using the printer.

INTRODUCTION:
Geeetech Prusa I3 M201 is the 2-in-1-out version of our latest
Prusa I3 series 3D printer. This is a fused filament fabrication printer,
easy to use and also designed for DIYers and professionals alike.
The M201 features our newly engineered the 2-in-1-out switchable
hotend, that feeds 2 filaments through one nozzle. With the new
2-in-1-out hotend the M201 can work like a color palette, providing a
new level of expression with your prints allowing you to create
alternating colors, blending color and gradients.
In order to achieve this we optimized the firmware that is driven
by our newly developed GTM32 control system, which is based on
the STM32 processor and paired with the ARM Coretex M3, running
a dominant frequency of 72MHz, greatly improving the overall
printing performance.
We added a new feature, the Mixer, to the interface to control the
percentage of the feed rate of the two filaments. To prevent the
extruder from becoming jammed from over fused filament detained
in the barrel we added an over fused protect feature or OFP which is
enabled by default and keeps things running smooth.
This M201 3D printer maintains DIY property, with which you can
unleash your creativity to refit or modify it as you like. This kit is just
the beginning; you can get more out of it.
