Getting Your D3D Printer Running

• Download OSE Lulzbot Cura for your computer
• Download Arduino Environment - make sure you don't download the latest version but use version 1.6.8 - download here. Connect from your computer to the Arduino Controller on your D3D 3D Printer with a USB cable.
• Download OSE Marlin. Upload OSE Marlin to your D3D Printer Arduino Controller.
• Download the OSE D3D 3D Printer Configuration Profile - File:D3DOriginal config.ini
• Open OSE Lulzbot Cura
• Download a sample print file, File:Hollow10.stl[
• Load this sample print file in Cura
• In Cura - go to the file menu: Cura->File->Open Profile... - and open the Configuration Profile by selecting the profile from wherever you saved it on your computer
• You are ready to print.

Prior to printing, you should:

• Verify the motion and homing of the x axis by hitting Home X Axis button in OSE Lulzbot Cura
• Verify motion and homing of the y axis by hitting the Home Y Axis button in OSE Lulzbot Cura
• Verify motion and homing of the y axis by hitting the Home Z Axis button in OSE Lulzbot Cura
• Heat up the extruder to 205C for PLA
• Heat up the bed to 60C for PLA
• Load the filament by hitting the Extrude Button after you insert the filament in the hole (extrude filament button will work only when the extruder is up to temperature
• When all axes home properly, you are ready to hit print. The red heater lights will come on, and once at temperature, the print will begin - starting with the 3 point calibration
• To pre-calibrate - when homing the z axis - a piece of paper should just get caught between the extruder nozzle when the heat bed moves all the way up. This pre-calibration must be done with the heat bed and extruder turned on to the printing temperature.
