prusaprinters

<h4>What's this about?</h4><p>This is Iron Maidens mascot, Eddie, in the “Book of Soul”-Edition. You can print this bust with every 3D printer in one colour, or with the MMU2 in five colours. For a single-colour print, use the provided *.stl-file. For a MMU-print, use the provided<i> *</i>.3mf-file, as explained below.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4>How to print this file in five colours?</h4><p>You will need PrusaSlicer version 2.4 for a multimaterial print. In version 2.4, Prusa introduced “Multimaterial Painting”. In the provided *.3mf-file, this feature is used for the MMU printing; you can see the different colour regions by selecting the model and pressing the “N” button. Just make sure the selected filaments (e.g. main colour→Filament 1, second colour→Filament 2 etc…) and the purgin volumes are correct.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4>Description of the used settings in the *.3mf-file</h4><ul><li>The provided *.3mf-file contains some settings you might need to change: It's set up to print the bust using a <strong>0.6mm nozzle </strong>and <strong>0.4mm layer heights</strong>. These settings are used to reduce the print time. The finished print still looks awesome with these settings, so I recommend to keep them. Just make sure to swap your nozzle or change it the print settings if you don't own a 0.6 nozzle.&nbsp;</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>There are<strong> support blockers</strong> on the back of the bust. I found that this area does not need support, but you should check it for yourself.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>There is a <strong>generic cylinder </strong>at the bottom of the print. It is used to fix one “little defect” of the model. Without the cylinder, a small part of the first layer won't print perfectly.</li></ul>
