Quick Tips
• View our initial setup walkthrough video at:
www.mynt3d.com/pages/tips
•Use lower temperatures than filament manufacturers suggest for
3D printers:
ABS: >190 C
PLA: <190 C
• If the feed motor begins to struggle stop operation and back out
the filament. Try cutting a new end before continuing. If the motor
continues to struggle there may be a piece of broken filament stuck
inside.

WARNING
BURN HAZARD. The ceramic nozzle of this device
can become extremely hot. DO NOT touch the tip or
any melted plastic or you may be severely burned.
DO NOT allow the tip near or in contact with
flammable materials. Inform others in the area that
the unit is hot and should be handled with care.
Allow the tip to cool completely after use and before
storing. The hot tip may cause damage to painted
surfaces, plastics and cloth if left in contact with
these materials. Only use 1.75mm ABS and PLA
filament.
ADULT USE ONLY. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN.
WARNING
DO NOT use this appliance near
bathtubs, showers, basins or other
vessels containing water.

Operation Instructions
1. Connect the AC Adapter and USB Power Cable to a power
outlet. Insert the plug into the power socket.
2. Adjust temperature (if desired) and press the feed button and
release. Keep an eye on the temperature display and wait for
the pen to heat to temperature.
3. Straighten the end of the filament if necessary and insert it into
the filament loading hole until it stops. Press and hold, or double
click the feed button to load filament into the pen. Sliding the
speed control all the way up will make this process faster.
4. Start your drawing on a flat surface. Glass with a thin layer
of washable gluestick makes for an optimal work surface, but you
can use anything that is heat safe and your filament adheres to.
Changing Colors
1. Bring your 3D Pen up to temperature.
2. Press and hold the withdraw button until the filament is free.
3. Ensure the new filament is cut correctly and load into the pen.

Important Tips and Notes
• Pressing the load or withdraw button once will exit continuous
feed mode.
• This 3D pen can be used with power banks that output at least
2 amps. This way you are not tethered to a wall outlet.
• Depending on the filament being used, plastic may continue to
extrude slightly after the feed button is released. This effect is
often more pronounced with PLA, and is a symptom of commercial
3D printers as well. Decreasing the temperature slightly can help.
• It is advised to only use the withdraw button when changing
filament. If filament is only partially withdrawn it can deform in the
barrel and the pen will not extrude. If this happens you should fully
withdraw the filament and cut off the deformed section.
• Filament quality varies greatly, and even reputable brands can
release bad batches. If your 3D pen is behaving abnormally, a
good first step is to try another roll of filament. Also, ABS and PLA
filament are damaged by excess humidity. It is good practice to
store your filament in a sealed and dry location.
• If you believe your nozzle is clogged, a good first step is to try
raising the temperature slightly to melt the clog. However, if you
find you are unable to remove it please note the nozzle is modular
and easily replaced. Replacement nozzles are available at
mynt3d.com.
• When changing from PLA to ABS filament, the nozzle may emit
a small amount of smoke from the increased temperature. PLA
is plant-based and does not release any toxic fumes when
over-heated.
