Printer is Built. Now What?

Post by Zorce » Sat Mar 21, 2015 6:00 pm

Acrylic i3 Printer
So I have the printer built but there are no instructions on how to calibrate it or what I need for my PC to run it?
Are there links on this subject?

Thanks

Greetings,

I had built the printer I3 B, but I got problem with the Pc software.

should I use Repetier-host or another one

when I connect the printer with the Pc, and then opening the repitier-host. i got a problem for testing the printer.
when I chose connect, no option appaer to me as your description. the only option is ( default).
Please help because i have spent more time to run the printer.I thought that it is strightforward, but according to the manual that you sent to me is not.

waiting your reply,

my email is ( Ha2008am@hotmail.com)

Do you mean choosing the printer type? If so, only Repetier-Host costomerized by Geeetech has these options.
You can also download Repetier-Host at:

Baud rate should be 250000.
If you want to heat up the extruder and hot bed, you should click the 2 icons highlighted in the picture:

If you want to print with the stl file, you should let the software slice first, click "Slice with slicer" as shown in the picture:
