Print check
Puts the part on your printer’s bed to see how it prints. The part itself is not changed.
Click Print check. The bar becomes the print bar.
The first time, pick your printer from the list or type its bed size. Every part is then checked against it.
The card says at once whether the part fits, about how many grams and hours it takes, and what needs support. Support shows blue on the part, thin walls amber, too-thin walls red, details too shallow to show green.
Turn the part on the bed with the print bar (below). The way it stands is kept with the part.
Click Finish Print to go back to the part.
