Important Notice
Wear safety goggles before using the printer.
Do not let children operate this device without
adult supervision. Moving parts may cause
serious injury.
Please place and use the printer in a well
ventilated area. The process of printing will
produce a small amount of non-toxic odor.
Having a well ventilated area will ensure a more
comfortable environment.
For a complete guide on precautions, clean-up
procedures, handling procedures, storage
procedures, and suggestions on protection, see
the "Resin Care" section in your product manual.
If unused for more than a week, pigments in the
resin may settle at the bottom of the cartridge or
the tank. Shake/stir well before using.
For the best printing performance, resin should
be used up within 3 months after purchasing and
within 1 month of opening. Resin should
preferably be stored at temperatures between
10-32°C (50-89.6°F).
Please ensure that the recommended operating
conditions are adhered to. (Operating
temperature 18-28℃ (64.4-82.4℉)/ humidity
40-80% RH); If a different operating temperature
is printed on the label on the resin bottle, please
adhere to recommended conditions on the
label.)
Due to the nature of the printing technology and
material, the resin tank may develop cloudy
regions overtime where the UV laser cures the
resin and may lead to print fails. Please avoid
printing over the cloudy area in the tank. Moving
the print location around the platform can help
prolong the life of the tank.
Change to a new tank when over 2/3 of the
surface gets cloudy.
Use separate resin tanks for resins of different
color. Mixing resins of different color may affect
printing quality.
Always perform “Horizon Calibration” after
changing to a new tank or a tank different the
one used for last print. Be sure to empty the tank
before calibrating the platform.
“AUTO FILL” is enabled by default. The
resin tank is auto-filled before printing and
when resin low is detected. You don’t
need to fill the tank manually.
Before changing the resin
bottle, please detach the transparent tube
from the cap and then the black tube.
Note
Select “PRINT FROM USB” in main
menu to proceed.
