Imagine that you are going to print dozens of LEGO bricks, you can make it in one operation instead of setting models and removing them from the plate for dozens of times! The multiple-model 3D printing feature can save you a lot of setup time.

If you want to set all the parameters and get things done at once, then the multiple-model laser engraving and cutting should be a feature that you’ll love and use frequently.

Faster is better. We added the Line (Normal Quality) mode to provide you a fast engraving option for grayscale images. This feature can save you hours for big grayscale images. The quality is still good, just next to the original Dot (High Quality) mode. The time you save varies greatly depending on the size and pattern of the grayscale images.

Troubleshooting

The nozzle may be filled with tiny particles or may get worn after printing over time, which will result in an extruding problem. You can follow this video tutorial to replace the hot end to fix it.

Troubleshooting

You might unfortunately find your printer’s nozzle is covered with a mass of extruded filament. In this video, you will learn how to clean the filament blob on the hot end.

Troubleshooting

Failed prints? Leveling the heated bed is an important factor to achieve a successful print. If the nozzle is too far from the bed, the first layer will not stick to the bed. If the nozzle is too close to the bed, it will scratch and damage the bed, and the filament can’t be extruded smoothly. In this video, you will learn how to level the heated bed on Snapmaker Original. 

If you cannot insert new filament into the 3D Printing Module, the filament may be broken inside the module. Detailed tutorial & article at https://snapmaker.zendesk.com/hc/en-u...
