Print Setup

Once in the RayWare tab, you will see a representation of the build platform, as well as some tools to get started:

The View Controls in the upper right hand side of the platform view allow you to quickly adjust the 3D view of the platform and models. Left Click and Drag to rotate the view, and Right Click and Drag to pan the view

On the right hand side, you will see the Print Setup menu selected by default. This is where we will get started by entering a Print Job NameAssigning to a Patient (not necessary), and selecting the type of appliance we wish to print

When a Print Job Type is selected, the default recommended Print Profile will be automatically selected.

You can create custom Print Profiles for easy access to your favorite settings by adding a name and saving your new profile once you have made the changes you would like

You will also need to choose the type of printer you are using, the resin type, as well as the layer thickness you wish to print at. Once selected, you can upload your STL file and RayWare Cloud will automatically orient and support your model with the recommended support settings, if necessary

Once your model is ready, you can send the print job to any SprintRay printer that is connected to the same Dashboard account

At any time you can see the estimated Print Time and the volume or resin consumed by the prepared print at the bottom of the platform view window

The small Platform Ribbon at the top of the view window allows you to quickly switch between different existing platforms, create new ones, delete, or import a previously prepared and saved SPR file. When you hover your mouse over a previous platform, a preview image will show

At any time you can edit the print settings, add or delete models, duplicate models, or adjust settings such as orientation, supports, and add labels to models
