If using any consumables, link here to recommended providers or current pledges to purchase.
Filament options (3.0mm)
*ABS (lego brick plastic - prints at 190-230 DegC, requires heated bed at 100-110 DegC)
*PLA (biodegradable , based on food starch - prints at 185-190 DegC, optional heated bed, not hotter than 60 DegC)
*There are other 'specialist' filament, like wood effect, stone effect, nylon (can be coloured by clothes dye), etc

=Training & instruction=
Training '''IS REQUIRED''' and is being carried out voluntarily by the current maintainer, more info on the separate [[3dprinter_training|training page]]
Please do not use the printer if you have not been trained, even if you think you know how to use it.

There are a number of files provided by Lulzbot with predefined settings. [https://www.dropbox.com/s/qymjrs1gn5jj7wa/3mm_pt5-nzl_pt3-lyr.ini setting 1] is for 0.3mm layers with a 60% infill. [https://www.dropbox.com/s/icq3cgntctamcha/3mm_pt5-nzl_pt4-lyr.ini  setting 2] is for 0.4mm layers and 80% infill.
I would stick with the config in the training section until we complete calibration.
