Testing a 3D printer is a process that involves a lot of minor tweaks and different software depending on the printer you are using. All printers have different systems and ways of working so comparing one to another is somewhat unfair, so instead we will be evaluating the printer on it’s print quality alone, with ease of use being evaluated on its own
A slicer is the software you use to convert a 3D model to G.code; this is what a printer uses to know what it is supposed to do, it contains all the information the printer needs to understand what it needs to do, this includes coordinates, temperature, speed and when to extrude material.
The slicer we used when testing this printer was Ultimaker Cura, which can be found for you to download here.
We will be printing a few models for testing, each will be linked as they are mentioned so you can download them if you desire. The models we will print for testing were specifically designed for that purpose and contain scenarios to push the printer to its limit.
