Wiki
This Wiki article contains some basic settings and tips for using the large format FDM printers (Carrot and Monstarr). These printers require another training class after completing the normal FDM printer training regarding our smaller prusa machines.
Settings
Both machines use Orca Slicer, available on the Slicing Computer.
They use a Voron-style macro setup, with START_PRINT and END_PRINT commands.
All machines have hardened nozzles for printing abrasives, and heated build chambers for high-temp materials.
