| == Usage and Slicer ==
| |
|
| |
|
| * there is no octoprint or other network connection set up yet. There is usb port on the side of the touchscreen and there should be a usb stick in it, use that
| |
|
| |
|
| * '''use this config file for prusaslicer''', it includes a filament profile for PETG and general print settings [[Media:PrusaSlicer_E5P_config_bundle_physical_printer.zip]]
| |
| ** to import into prusa slicer: File -> Import -> Import Config Bundle
| |
| *** to get the physical printer profile make sure to do the bundle on not just "import config"!!!
| |
| ** on the left panel of prusa slicer, at the top of that panel there should be 3 drop down menus: "Print settings", "Filament" and "Printer". In those menu's select the profiles for the Ender 5 Plus
| |
| *** BE SURE that in the printer profile is set to the ender 5 plus, or else their will be wrong PHYSICAL (REAL LIFE) machine movement limits and the gcode that is generated will move the printer all weird and could damage the printer!!
| |
| ** adjust the print settings (add support, or a brim or more perimeters, etc) if desired
| |
| ** slice it and export the gcode to the usb stick, then plug that into the side of the screen
| |

|
| * to load the filament push it all the way through the tubing to the direct drive extruder, then can use the knob on the extruder to load it down to the nozzle. If you have trouble inserting it into the long tube, try to rotate the filament while pushing, if all else fail then push down on the blue collar around the fitting to remove the tubing from it and can push the filament through
| |
|
| |
|
| * always check the first layer!!! there is live z-adjust on the touchscreen called "baby steps"
