Product Assembly

Install the XY-axis Frame

Place both the conveyor belt platform and the XY-axis frame sideways, and secure them with two M5*14 cup head hexagon socket screws.
Then use M5*14 round head socket cap screws to install the fixed plate on one side onto the aluminum profile.
After standing the machine upright, install the fixed plate on the other side.

After installation, measure the 45° angle. If the error is large, you need to loosen the screws and recalibrate. Tighten the screws again after proper calibration.

XY-axis Frame, Conveyor Belt Platform, Fixed Plates × 2,Triangle Plate, M5*14 Round Head Socket Cap Screws × 12, M5*14 Cup Head Socket Cap Screws × 2

To measure if the frame’s angle is 45 degrees, use a triangle ruler. If the measurement is not 45 degrees, please loosen the screws and make the necessary adjustments.

Check if the XY-axis movement is smooth.
To enhance the stable operation of printers, it is recommended to regularly check the smoothness of XY-axis movement and apply an appropriate amount of lubricant, as well as promptly clean dust and impurities from the tracks, ensuring continued efficient and precise performance. Smooth movement not only significantly reduces the occurrence of layer shift and mis-touching but also effectively protects the steel belt from wear, thereby extending the service life of both the steel belt and the print head. For devices that are used frequently, regular lubrication is an indispensable maintenance measure.

Install Screen&Filament Holder

Wire Connection

Connect the screen，the X and Y motors, the filament motion sensor，the print head and power cable.

Securely tie the print head cable and Teflon tubing with ties and fasten them to the bracket. Otherwise, there’s a risk of them getting tangled with the motor, leading to layer shifting during printing, and in severe cases, potentially damaging the printer.

Usage Steps

After completing the assembly, Power on and wait for main interface.The process consists of five steps:

Autoleveling.
Connect to WiFi.

Preheat and load filament.
Install the software and upload the file.
Start printing and demoulding.

Autoleveling
Autoleveling is a must! Skipping this step can damage your printer’s steel belt. So, right after you turn on your printer, make sure to start the autoleveling.

To start the auto-leveling process, tap ①the ‘Auto-Leveling’ button on the screen.
The print head is now calibrating. It will touch six points on the heated bed for leveling. Please wait patiently while the calibration finishes.

leveling is complete, Tap② Accept to finalize auto-leveling and save your settings.You don’t need to perform auto leveling every time you turn on the printer. It’s only necessary when the model fails to adhere properly, or when you replace the XY motors or belts.
Tap ③configuration,④Bed Mesh to check the bed data.
If the difference in data between the leftmost and rightmost points is within ±0.2, then it can be considered normal，and this step is generally verified during the printer’s manufacturing. If it is not within the normal range, you need to adjust the tightness of the motor belt according to the mesh bed data, because uneven tightness of the belt may lead to deviation in the left and right heights of the mesh bed.

If the data difference between the leftmost and rightmost points exceeds ±0.2, loosen the two screws inside ① and adjust the tightness of the belt by turning the screw inside ②.

Normally, the belt tension has been adjusted before shipment, and you should not need to make any adjustments. However, if the belt becomes loose due to transportation, you may need to adjust it based on the bed mesh data. If you need assistance, please contact our technical professionals.

Connect to WIFI & Get IP

By using the IP address, you can upload sliced files and control your printer remotely, whether from a computer or a mobile device.

Tap ①Configuration, ②Network to enter the Wi-Fi connection interface.
Select ③ the Wi-Fi you want to join.
Enter ④your password and save.

Connection successful. ⑤Return.
Tap the blue button ⑥ to toggle the Wi-Fi, and you will obtain the IP address.
Record the printer’s IP address ⑦.

Open a web browser and type in the IP address ⑩. Enter.
Once you successfully access the IP address, you can then operate and manage your printer accordingly.

Preheat and Load Filament

The purpose of this step is to load the filament, ensuring it is properly loaded in the printer. A test extrusion will then be performed to check if the filament passes smoothly through the nozzle, minimizing the risk of printing faults.

First, preheating. ① Tap on the temperature number, ② enter the heating temperature based on the filament, ③ tap “√” to initiate heating.
To insert the filament, ④ insert the filament into the side-mounted filament sensor, pushing it all the way in until you feel resistance.
Open the side wrench of the print head, manually insert the filament into the nozzle position, and then try to extrude it.

Tap on “Extrude” ⑤ on the main screen, then tap “Extrude” ⑥ to see if the nozzle is extruding properly. If it extrudes normally, that means the filament installation is complete.
Please wait until the temperature reaches the target temperature. Once the filament is successfully extruded, make sure to reinsert the teflon tube, as failure to do so will affect normal printing.

Software Setup & File Upload

USB flash drive contains the installation package of ideamaker and the printer configuration file. After installing the software, follow the steps to import the printer configuration file.

After installation is complete, open the software and click finish the configuration wizard. In the prepare to slice window, select ① Import from local disk.

Select ② PLA or PETG from the USB flash drive. Click ③ OK.
After successful import, the configuration will look like this.
inport models④.

Start slicing⑤.
After slicing, preview and then ⑥ export the file locally.
Enter your 3D printer’s IP address⑦ in the browser to upload the print file.
The file size limit for uploading is 490MB, and files exceeding this limit will fail to upload successfully. In such cases, the files need to be copied to a USB flash drive and then printed from the printer.

Navigate to”Jobs”, click⑧Upload,select sliced file, and wait for the upload to complete.

Start Printing&Demoulding

During printing, avoid uploading files to prevent issues. Max file size is 490MB; larger files must be copied to USB for printing.

After completing the above steps, you are ready to embark on your printing journey.

After printing, wait for the heated bed to cool down before demoulding.It is recommended to use the Z-axis to move forward and push the model off the steel belt. Perform a homing, then follow these steps:

It’s important not to use excessive force when removing the model as it may cause unnecessary damage to the steel belt.

Filament Motion Sensor
The filament motion sensor is designed to detect conditions such as filament exhaustion or clogging, enabling the printer to pause operation when necessary to prevent print failures.After pausing, please follow these steps.

.Select Temperature Settings: Tap① the “temperature” .

To set the heating temperature, be sure to first ② select the extruder, and then ③ enter the corresponding heating temperature for preheating.
Wait for the consumable material to heat up to the preset target temperature.
If there is old filament present, after the heating is complete, pull out the old filament.

Insert the new filament, pushing it all the way to the end. Then, tap on “Extrude” ⑤ to attempt extruding the new filament to check if it flows smoothly.
⑥ Return, and then ⑦ resume the printing process.

If the print job paused due to a clog rather than a depleted filament, please follow these steps:

Heat the nozzle by waiting for the extruder to reach the target temperature, as per the previous steps.
Once heating is complete, attempt to extrude the filament to check if it flows smoothly. If the filament does not extrude smoothly, increase the extruder temperature by 10 degrees and retry extrusion.
If the filament still does not extrude smoothly after increasing the temperature, it may be necessary to replace the nozzle or check if the print head is clogged.

To remove the filament, heat it up and pull it out. Then, unscrew the nozzle carefully and use tweezers to handle the nozzle, taking care to avoid burns.

Camera&Led
