Device Safety Unlock
Follow these steps to safely unlock the printer:
- Cut the fixing straps between the pearl cotton and the heat bed, then take out the tool box.
- Cut the straps, then remove the cardboard from the tool head.
- Use the Allen wrench to remove the four screws fixing the heat bed. Then, remove the traceless adhesive fixing the PEI panel and its packaging bag.
- Lift the printer body. Pull the bottom timing belt to lift the heat bed, and remove the pearl cotton located beneath the heat bed.
Diagram Description: Four diagrams illustrate the steps: cutting straps, removing cardboard from the tool head, unscrewing the heat bed, and lifting the printer to remove protective foam.
Display Screen Installation
Follow these steps to install the display screen:
- Hold the display screen with your left hand (SD card slot side facing right). Pinch the ribbon cable with your right hand and gently pull it out to a suitable distance.
- Align the ribbon cable with the screen connector and press it in evenly with both index fingers.
- Following the diagram, insert the display screen into the printer's card slot and push it to the left to secure.
Diagram Description: Three diagrams show the process: holding the screen and pulling the ribbon cable, connecting the ribbon cable, and inserting the screen into the printer's slot.
Filament Spool Holder Installation
Follow these steps to install the filament spool holder:
- Use the H2.0 Allen wrench and two M3*8 screws (from screw bag #2) to install the filament spool holder onto the side of the machine.
- Take out the power cable. Fully insert the plug end into the power interface on the back of the machine. Connect the other end to a power socket. Confirm the connection is secure before starting the machine.
Diagram Description: Two diagrams show the installation: attaching the spool holder with screws, and plugging the power cable into the printer and a wall socket.
Power-on Guide
After powering on, follow the on-screen prompts. The process includes:
- Device Self-Check (设备自检): This process takes a few minutes and includes steps like homing, heating, auto-leveling, and vibration compensation.
- Language Selection (语言选择): Choose from Chinese, English, Deutsch, Français, Español.
- Network Connection (连接网络): Connect to a Wi-Fi network.
Upon completion, a "Self-check complete" message appears, followed by a welcome screen and an option to "Start Using".
Diagram Description: A sequence of interface mockups illustrates the power-on process: initial screen, self-check status, language selection menu, Wi-Fi connection screen, and the final "Self-check complete" screen.
Filament Loading Preparation
Follow these steps to load filament:
- Place the filament spool on the machine's side spool holder (ensure the outer circulation is open).
- Thread the filament into the PTFE tube, pushing gently until it stops.
- Tap the screen icon ➡️, navigate to "Filament" -> "Feed". Gently push the filament. Wait for the extruder to draw in the filament and for filament to start extruding from the nozzle.
- Tap the screen icon ➡️, select a model to print. (It is recommended to perform auto-leveling before each print).
Diagram Description: Two diagrams show placing the filament spool and threading it into the PTFE tube. Two interface screenshots show the "Feed" process and the print selection screen.
Slicing Software
Instructions:
- Download the slicing software from the official website (www.artillery3d.com) or copy the latest version from the SD card.
- On the machine's screen, tap "➡️" -> "Network" to view the machine's IP address. Bind the machine's IP address within the slicing software.
Connecting the printer: On the right side of the page, use the "Add Printer" dropdown menu. Two connection methods are available: 1. Find nearby printers; 2. Bind by IP address.
Diagram Description: Two screenshots are shown. The first displays the printer's network settings showing the Wi-Fi name and IP address. The second shows the slicing software interface with options to add a printer, either by finding nearby printers or binding via IP address.
Import Model and Slice
Instructions:
- Import a model by clicking the "➡️" button in the top menu bar of the preview pane (supports formats: 3mf/stl/stp/step/obj).
- Click the "Slice Plate" button in the upper right corner. The system will automatically generate the G-code print instruction file and navigate to the preview page.
Diagram Description: Two screenshots of the slicing software are displayed. The first shows the interface for importing models and selecting printer/filament profiles. The second shows the slicing parameters panel, detailing settings like layer height, wall thickness, infill, etc.
Print Preview
Instructions: After slicing is complete, click the "Print" button in the upper right corner. This will bring up the print task window. Select the printer and send the print job. (It is recommended to enable "Auto-leveling" for each print).
Diagram Description: A screenshot of the slicing software's print preview window is shown. It displays the sliced model, print parameters, estimated print time, and material usage. The "Print" button is highlighted.
Export SD Card Print
Instructions:
- To print using an SD card, click "Export G-code file" on the top right of the screen. A file explorer window will pop up. Select the SD card to save the file.
- Remove the SD card and insert it into the printer. On the printer screen, select the "SD Card" icon from the left menu options. Click on the recently exported file to begin printing.
