Layer Height: Thicker layers will print more quickly, but they won’t capture as much detail as thinner layers.Some of the terminology may change slightly in different slicer apps, but these settings are generally the same across most common apps.

The default values in the above picture are a great place to start, but you can always adjust them in your slicer software if you want to make changes. While we’re not going to be adjusting any of these settings, it’s worth taking a minute to better understand what they all do. By selecting the ‘Normal’ Quickprint setting, these settings will all be populated accordingly. Toggling ‘Full’ mode on will reveal more adjustable parameters. Since we’re using PLA, we won’t need to select either of these options and can leave this drop-down menu set to ‘None’. Platform Adhesion: Creality Slicer can automatically generate a brim or raft to aid adhesion when using high-temperature materials that tend to warp or curl during printing.Because the 3D Benchy doesn’t require support material, we can leave this box unchecked. Other: The only option here is to toggle support material on and off.We’re going to use ‘Normal (0.15,mm)’, which strikes a good compromise between speed and quality.

While these settings are all individually adjustable in the Full mode, selecting a premade profile will get you printing quickly without much adjusting required.

Profile: Selecting a profile automatically adjusts all of the settings used in making a print including layer height, print speed, travel speed, etc.Since we’re using PLA, we’ll select ‘Common PLA’ here. Material: This is the material being used for the print.While the Full mode offers more granular control over the print settings, we’re going to use Quickprint for this article so we can cover all the basics. Quickprint allows you to choose a material, profile, platform adhesion aid and also toggle support material on and off.

Most sliced gcode files will be between 5MB and 15MB, so anything over 1GB should work fine.īefore we get started, you’ll need to download both your 3D model as well as the slicer software for your 3D printer.Ĭreality Slicer offers two modes for slicing.

microSD Card: The Ender 3 Pro includes an 8GB microSD card for transferring files, but some printers include a USB drive.

We’ll be using Creality Slicer for this article, but most slicing apps offer similar features and the basic principles are the same.

Slicing Software: In order to print your model, you’ll need to convert it from a solid 3D model to a series of slices that can be printed using an app called a slicer.

However you can also download STL files from sites such as Thingiverse.

3D Model: The 3D Benchy is an ideal first print for your 3D printer it offers a calibration test and is a fun model in a single print.

Filament: PLA is one of the most commonly used materials on the Ender 3, and in this article we’ll be using Begonova branded material.

If you need to choose, see our list of best 3D printers. However, other filament-based (aka FDM) printers should work similarly.

3D Printer: We’re using the Creality Ender 3 Pro, a solid entry-level 3D printer.

If you’re never 3D printed before, this is a great way to get started.

Below, we’ll show you how to print a typical STL file on a typical FDM printer, though no matter what device you use, the basic steps should be similar.
