Intro
Rules
- Don't install anything without approval from the zone coordinator.
- Don't expect to keep any files you may download onto it, everything is subject to being wiped at any time. Instead, keep a copy on the fileshare.
- Use the media zone if you need to work on your project for extended periods.
Instructions
In addition to the slicer software, Blender and FreeCAD are also installed in case you need to make minor edits to your model. Otherwise, check out Claptrap. But generally:
FDM Printers
- Launch PrusaSlicer from the dock, or OrcaSlicer from the app drawer
- Import your model from the fileshare (Files app > Network) or over USB
- Firefox has saved logins/bookmarks for uploading your g-code over PrusaLink
SLA Printers
The Anycubic Slicer is running in Wine and only has access to the Linux home folder, so you'll need to use it as an intermediary directory. So, essentially:
- Copy your model from the fileshare (bookmarked or Files app > Network) or USB to the Downloads folder
- Launch Anycubic Photon Workshop from the dock
- Import your model by navigating to My Computer > Z:\ > Downloads > ...
- Save your g-code back to the same path as the previous step
- Open the Files app and copy your g-code over to the printer's USB stick
