Safety Instructions
Before you get started, please read these important safety instructions.
CAUTION: This WANHAO 3D Printer generates high temperatures and includes moving parts
that can cause injury. Never reach inside of the WANHAO 3D Printer while it is in operation,
and allow time for the printer to cool down after operation.
HOT EXTRUDER MOVING PARTS
Vapours/fumes may be irritating at operating temperatures. Always use the WANHAO
3D Printer in an open, well ventilated area.
Do not leave the WANHAO 3D Printer unattended during operation.
Contact with extruded material may cause burns. Wait for printed objects and printer to
cool before removing them from the build platform.
• Please read and understand the contents of this user manual carefully. Failure to
read the manual fully and use the printer as directed may result in injury or damange.
• The WANHAO 3D Printer is not intended for use by children without supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be under constant supervision when using the printer.
• Before installation, you should make sure that the WANHAO 3D Printer is unplugged from the

INTRODUCTION
1.1 What is 3D Printing?
3D Printing is a process where an object is created from a 3D computer designed file. Fused
Filament Fabrication (FFF) is the process you D10 Printer uses to achieve this. FFF is an additive
process where material is added in layers to create the object. Commonly, plastic materials such as
PLA or ABS lament are used to create a 3D object.
1.2 From 3D Design to Printed 3D Object
3D Design Slice to GCODE Setup WANHAO 3D Printer
3D Printing Process 3D Printed Object
3D Design
Having a 3D design is the rst step to creating a 3D Object.
There are a number of free 3D Designs that can be downloaded
and printed for personal use. Websits such as Thingiverse.com,
Pinshape.com and YouMagine.com are a good place to start,
but there are many more available!
Alternatively, you can create your own 3D Design using 3D Modelling Software. Programs such as
Sketchup or Blender allow this, however this can take some practice before successfully modelling
your 3D Design. After you've nished your 3D Design, you can export it as an STL le to be imported
into a 'Slicer' program such as Cura.
Slice to GCODE
A 'Slice' converts a 3D Design (usually an .STL or .AMF format) into
individual layers. It then generates the machine code (such as GCODE)
that the 3D Printer will use for printing.
The D10 printer uses Cura to convert and prepare les for printing.

INTRODUCTION
Load your Object
After slicing and preparing your file, load it onto the included
Memory Card and insert into the D10 printer.
3D Printing Process
After loading your file and pressing print, the D10 printer will
heat up the extruder and start your print. This can take some time
depending on the size of the 3D model, print speed and resolution
of each layer.
Here is an example of how size, inll, and resolution can affect printing time:
Dimensions:
Inll:
Resolution:
Print Time:
Filament Used:
62.5 x 25.75 x 67.75mm 70 x 70 x 140mm
20% 0%
2mm 2mm
53min 39min
4m 2.54m
20% 20%
2mm 1mm
6hr 40min 13hr 12min
45m 45.67m
3D Printed Object
Once the printer has completed all of the layers, you will have a 3D Printed Object. The
results are certainly worth it, with 3D models ranging from simple to complex.

DOWNLOADING
AND INSTALLING CURA
The preferred software for your printer is Cura.
This software package prepares your 3D model into instructions that
your printer uses to produce an object.
1. The Cura software package can be downloaded
from the “Down Load Software” section on our website:
http://www.wanhao3dprinter.com/Down/ShowArticle.
asp?ArticleID=56
2. Download the latest version of Cura for your operating system. Our software is
available for, WindowsXP or newer, MacOS 10.6 or newer and Ubuntu Linux 12.10
or newer.
3. Open the installer and follow the directions to install the software.
4. After installing Cura, Cura will ask
what kind of 3D printer you have.
Select the D10. No other
conguration will be required, and
Cura will be ready to use.
5. After the installation you will see the
D10-robot positioned in the Cura interface.
In case you did not select the machine
type. Please go to Machine—Wanhao-D10
to select the correct machine.
6. If you already have this software, then you just need to add the D10 into the setting, Detailed
tutorial is on page 25.
NOTE: We keep on updating our software, so the
latest version that you have downloaded might be a
newer version than the one in this manual.
