Printing with the H-Series 3D Printer

Loading a 3D Model

Click File / Open or the Open icon on the toolbar
(Windows only) and select the model you want to
open. The Afinia 3D Printer software only
supports

STL

files (which is the standard input

format for 3D printing files), the

UP3

and

UPP

formats.



You can open several models
and print them all at the same
time. Simply repeat the open
model

procedure

for

each

model you want to add (see
Placing Models onto the Build
Platform
, page 21, for more
information).

Insert Copy
You can also add multiple
copies of the same model to the
platform by selecting Insert
Copy

from

the

right-click

options

(Windows)

or

by

selecting Copy from the Tools menu. Select the number of copies from the list.

You will need to reposition the models after the copies have been added.

Unloading the Model, Windows
Click the left mouse button on the
model to select it, and then click
Unload on the toolbar, or click the
right mouse button while over the
model and a context menu will
appear. Choose Unload using
the model name or Unload All
models if you have more than one
file open and want to remove all
of them.
