3. Introduction to Cubicon Style
Operation
What is Cubicon Style?

Cubicon Style is an FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) type 3D printer that controls the position of an
extruder with an x/y/z axis controlling motor, uses a heating system to melt the filament supplied to
the extruder, pushes the melted filament outside the nozzle with the extruder motor, and constructs
a printed object layer by layer.
Cubicon Style greatly improves print stability by adding user-friendly and innovative functions.
In-house designed Extruder module
The most important and key part of an FFF(Fused Filament Fabrication) type printer is the extruder,
which heats and melts the filament and then pushes it out of the nozzle.
Cubicon Style features in-house designed module type extruder, the first of its kind in Korea. Using
the module type extruder maximizes the user friendliness, as the extruder can be easily removed
from the printer for service by unscrewing the bolts and cable when the nozzle is clogged.

Stylish Design / Easy control with Touch button
Cubicon Style is designed to be ideal for being equipped g on the desk at home, educational place
and offices. The control panel is applied with the LED display with Touch button to enhance the
usability and elegance. Also, the menu key is arranged according to the most usable functions,
being able to operate without any difficulty for the novice.
Clean Filter to ensure user’s Health and Filter fan control
The filament material used by the FFF type printer is known to be harmless to the human body.
However, dusts and impurities can be generated when it is melted by heat.
Cubicon Style uses a deodorizing filter, HEPA filter and Purafil catalyst to improve the filter
performance.
> HEPA filter: 13H grade to collect 99.97% of 0.3um particulate matter.
> Deodorizing filter: Filtering of harmful gas.
> Purafil catalyst: Filtering of organic compounds generated by copiers and printers.

Also, the Cubicon Style has the enclosed build area and automatically controls the constant
ambient temperature.
It ensures the pleasant and constant printing environment for users.
Auto Leveling Plus Function
The flatness and distance from the nozzle of the heating bed, which is the platform on which the
printed object is constructed, are important factors determining the quality of the printed object.
The conventional FFF printer not fully auto levels, as the user must manually or semi-manually
adjust the bed height, or even when it claims to be auto level, it was not fully auto level since the
deviation is calculated with the software and reflected in printing.
Cubicon Style features the unique Auto Leveling Plus function, which precisely measures the
height of the heated bed and uses it to adjust the space from the nozzle in optimal condition.
Moreover, it is applied with a special coating on the heated bed to eliminate the inconvenience of
having to use the Kapton tape, and thus ensures an optimum print quality and minimum
maintenance.
Experience Cubicon Style’s unique Auto Leveling Plus function.

Use of Diverse and Smart Materials
Cubicon Style supports the use of both PLA and ABS, which are mostly used by the individuals, as
well as Flexible filament without adding any extra equipment or exchanging of the extruder.
Explore the joy of printing various printed object with diverse materials.
Self-diagnosis feature
Most FFF-Type 3D Printer is heated up at high temperature and cools down the heating with the fan.
Therefore, the malfunction of heater or fan may cause the problem to the printing quality and safety.
Cubicon Style has the self-diagnosis feature alerting the defect of heater and fan to take a proper
action. It enables user to use the printer more safely.
Quiet Printing
Most of 3D printer cannot be free from noise due to being driven by motor and belts.
Cubicon Style has enhanced the noise level by reducing more than 10dB noise than previous
model.

* The extruder nozzle and heated bed are heated or cooled to achieve the target temperature.
* The printer’s internal temperature rises with the heat from the nozzle and heated bed when the
printing begins. Once the current temperature reaches the target temperature, the outside air is
circulated to cool the printer.
* To ensure safety, this product does not use a separate heater to increase the current
temperature.
* The noise from the ventilation fan is generated when the convection circulation function is
activated to lower the inside temperature.
* The unit of temperature is ‘℃’.
* When the printing is paused, the file name and printing time are displayed on [5].
* Remaining printing time will differ from the estimated time of slicing program and type of
model. It may automatically renew the remaining printing time during printing process.
* The details of the LCD display may be different according to the firmware version.
* For the filament, the target temperatures (heated temperatures) of the [1] extruder and [2]
heated bed are very important.
[1] If the extruder nozzle temperature is too far above or below the filament melting
temperature, extrusion quality can be poor, and an extruder malfunction may result.
The recommended filament melting temperature ([1] Extruder target temperature) is printed
on the sticker of the filament spool. Make sure that the printer is maintained at the proper
temperature, by referring to the target temperature.
[2] The heated bed temperature also differs according to the type of filament used. The
recommended heated bed temperature for Cubicon Style is 60~70 for PLA/Flexible and
110~120 for ABS. However, as the actual temperature may differ according to the printed
object, use the proper temperature accordingly. If the heated bed temperature is not suitable
for the filament being used, the printed object may not adhere to the heated bed or the
bottom output status may be defective.
Cubicon Style’s heated bed is designed to ensure that the printed object is adhered to the
heated bed when printing at a specific temperature or higher in the case of PLA/ABS
filament even without the Kapton tape, as well as to ensure that the printed object is easily
removed from the bed when the temperature drops.

When the Pause or Stop function is selected during printing, there will be a slight time delay.
This is due to the process of printing data that are already in the buffer memory. Printing will be
paused or stopped after a brief delay.

6.5. Caution and Notes on Using the Functional Menu

Cubicon Style contains a motor and a heating unit, and the printer functions are interconnected with
these parts.
Inappropriately combining these functions may cause printer damage or injury.
Please remember the following cautions and notes when you use the product.
- Cubicon Style can print a 3D model file using a G-Code file (*.hvs) created by the slicing
program Cubicreator. The printer will not recognize files in other formats.
- Use the dedicated software Cubicreator to create G-Code files for the printer.
G-Code files created by other slicing software program cannot compatible to the Cubicon.
- Regarding equipment setting through Cubicreator, select ‘Cubicon Style (3DP-210F)’.
If set to other equipment, it may cause the problem on printed object.
{SD Card} - Because the file name in the SD Card is recognized in English only, save normal G-Code file
name in English.
- Files in the SD Card will be shown on the screen from the latest sorted files.
- The number of Files in the SD Card is limited up to 150 per each folder. Clean up the folder
because it is not shown if there are more than 150 files in the folder.
- Folder of the SD Card will be recognized up to step# 2 Sub- folder.
In other words, it is recognized as Root / Sub1 / Sub2.
The extruder nozzle and heated bed must be preheated according to the filament being used
in order to properly print the model Although the extruder nozzle and heated bed are
automatically preheated to the temperature set in G-Code before printing an object using a G-
Code file, the user can manually preheat the nozzle and heated bed using the {Preheat} and
{Temperature} settings.
{Preheat} and {Preheat} raises the temperature of the nozzle and heated bed to the preset temperature
{Temperature} according to the ABS or PLA material. {Temperature} is used to separately adjust the nozzle
temperature, heated bed temperature, convection circulation temperature, and print fan speed.
When printing with G-Code, the temperatures of the heated bed and nozzle
are sequentially raised to the values set in G-Code. Therefore, the target
temperature of the extruder nozzle is displayed as “Wait” when the
temperature of the heated bed is not at the target temperature.
To push the filament out of the nozzle, the filament must first be heated to the melting point. In
other words, the extruder nozzle must be heated to melt the filament, as the filament must
pass through the nozzle for printing. Set the extruder temperature to be sufficiently high to melt
Temperature the filament.
setting of * Operations involving the extruder motor, including print, {Load}, {Unload},
etc. automatically include heating of the extruder nozzle.
{Extruder}
* The temperature setting range of Extruder is 160~260C. If the temperature is
=Nozzle less than 160C it will be shown as 0C and it means the temperature of non-
temperature heated extruder.
If the extruder nozzle is not heated or is heated to a temperature lower than
the filament melting temperature, the filament may be fragmented or cut off,
or in extreme cases the extruder may malfunction.
To print the model on the heating bed, the heated bed must be heated so that the melted

setting of
As the printed object may not adhere to the bottom or may be in a distorted shape if the
{Heat Bed}
temperature of the heated bed is not suitable for the filament in use, the target temperature of
the heated bed should be set according to the filament in use and the printed object.

* Printing will begin when the heated bed is heated to the temperature set in
the G-Code.
* The ‘bottom structure’ option can be applied when G-Code is saved by
Cubicreator if the printed object does not adhere to the bottom even after
adjusting the temperature of the heated bed.
* Temperature setting range of heated bed is 50 ~ 120C. In the case of less
than 50C it is shown in 0C which means a temperature of heated bed does
not heated the heating bed.
The chamber controls the internal ambient temperature of the printer. If the internal
temperature is higher than the set point of temperature, it operates the filter fan to cool the
printer down to the target temperature.
Temperature * The temperature setting range of Chamber is 30 ~ 55C. If less than 30C, it
setting of will be shown as 0C meaning that the internal cooling fan is not operating.
* Cubicon Style cools the inside with the external air, please note if
{Chamber}
temperature of chamber is set to 0C, the internal temperature will be
increased because the cooling fan is not working.
* The internal temperature cannot go down to setting temperature according
to the external air because the Cubicon Style cools down the inside with the
outside air.
Load/Unload Filament operates the extruder motor to move the filament after the extruder
nozzle temperature reaches the set temperature. Check the extruder temperature when you
load or unload the filament.
Load/Unload is generally used to replace the filament.
To replace a filament, it is recommended to preheat the extruder nozzle in
{Load/Unload advance by setting the extruder temperature to the extruder nozzle
Filament} temperature of the filament already melted in the nozzle or that of the new
filament, whichever value is higher.
When a filament is used up, the edge of the filament will remain inside the
extruder. Using the printer without removing the residual filament may cause
an extruder problem. Unload the filament using {Unloading} after a filament is
used up to remove the filament remaining inside the extruder.
{Motion} provides the X/Y/Z axis operation mostly for maintenance. When you use this
function, make sure that there is no object or body part in the intended destination.
The {Motion} function performs an abnormal printer function. It is recommended not to use the
function during normal time.
* It should be noted that if there is a body part or object in the path of
{Motions} {Motions}, injury or damage may result. In particular, the printed object
should not be left inside the printer after printing is completed, as it may be
collided with during {Motions}.
* When executing {Ext. Move} while the detachable extruder part is mounted,
the extruder temperature should first be increased above the level required
to melt the filament in use. Otherwise, the filament may be fragmented or
cut off, and in extreme cases the extruder may malfunction.
It enables to manually adjust the distance between nozzle and heated bed through
{Configuration>Auto Leveling}>OFFSET}. However, the Cubicon Style automatically measures
the height and adjusts it.
{Auto Leveling Therefore, please set Offset at “0” in case of normal operation.

make the distance far-off.
When tilting process fails, clean the carbonized filament at the top of nozzle
and level point on the bed plate. If the issue continues, please contact the
authorized AS center to fix it.

6.6. Replacing Filament (Loading/Unloading)

Filament must be inserted into the extruder to push the melted filament, which is the printing
material, through the nozzles, and the filament must be pulled out of the extruder to replace a
filament with another.
Loading is the process of inserting the filament into the extruder when there is no filament inside the
extruder so that the filament can be melted and pushed out of the nozzles for printing, while
unloading is taking the filament out of the extruder.
To replace the currently used filament with another filament, the current filament must be unloaded
and the new filament must be loaded.
6.6.1. Loading Filament (Printer in Standby Mode)

① Pull out the filament to the edge of the Teflon tube,
referring to “5.2.2. Mounting of Filament Spool”
② (While the power is on)

Select {Prepare > Load Filament} from the menu.
You can click ‘Temp’ and set or change the target

temperature to load. Set the temperature to suit the
filament in use.
The figure on the right shows the heated bed

temperature changed to 240oC.
The “Wait…” message will blink until the extruder

nozzle temperature reaches the target level.

③ When the extruder nozzle temperature reaches the

target value, the “Wait…” message disappears, and
the {Load Start} menu is displayed.
When you select {Load Start}, the extruder motor

to move the filament is operated, and “Loading” gets
started after home sensing.
If the edge of the filament in the Teflon tube is

bent or pressed, cut off the part with scissors
When stopping the movement of extruder, hold the
filament and push it until you can feel it is pulled to
the filament entry at the top of the extruder.
If you insert the filament by around 3cm, the
filament is notched to the gear and automatically
pushed.
When the filament is pushed automatically, wait for

a while until the melted filament sticks out of the
nozzle at the bottom. Press the [OK] button to stop
loading after around 30cm of filament slides down.
④ Insert the edge of the Teflon tube into the filament
entry. Remove the filament sticking out of the nozzle
with tweezers or another appropriate means.
* Make sure that no part of the body contacts the nozzle area, as both the nozzle and the
filament are hot when the extruder nozzle temperature is raised.
* The filament may be stuck at the entry of the nozzle rod when it is pushed into the nozzle rod
of the detachable extruder part. (A cracking sound may be produced.) In that case, press the
filament handle and pull out the filament. Cut off the edge with scissors and insert it into the
filament entry to attempt loading again.
* When manually operating the handle, be careful not to pull out the filament with excessive
force, as it may damage the internal sensor or nozzle rod.
The filament is coiled around the spool. Because of its shape,

the filament that is unwound from the spool will have a gentle
curved shape. When this curved shape is inserted into the
extruder, it may not be smoothly pushed into the entry of the
nozzle rod.
It will be easier if the filament is positioned so that it is curved
in the clockwise from the front.

6.6.2. Unloading Filament (Printer in Standby Mode)

① Pull the Teflon tube out of the filament entry of the
extruder.
② (While the power is on)

Select {Prepare > Unload Filament} from the menu.
You can click {Temp} and set or change the target

temperature to unload. Set the temperature to suit
the filament in use.
The figure on the right hand side shows the heated
bed temperature changed to 240oC.
“Wait…” blinks until the extruder nozzle temperature

reaches the target level. Wait until the nozzle
temperature reaches the target value.
When the extruder nozzle temperature reaches the

target value, the “Wait…” message disappears, and
{Unload Start} is displayed.

③ When you select {Unload Start}, the extruder

motor to move the filament is operated to pull up the
filament inside the extruder. Wail until the filament is
automatically pulled up.
After a while, “Pull Out Filament” will be displayed

on the LCD screen. Pull out the filament (2) while
the filament handle is pressed(1).
④ Press the [ENTER]button to terminate unloading.
* Make sure that no part of the body contacts the nozzle area, as both the nozzle and the
filament are hot when the extruder nozzle temperature is raised.
* Always press the filament handle when you pull out the filament.
This is to prevent the problem that result when the edge of the melted filament is stuck
inside the extruder.
When unloading the filament, it can be stuck into the extruder due to the differenct end shape
depending on the filament type.
Do not force to pull out the filament during unloading in case the filament is stuck in or it may
cause the blockage. Unload the filament after pushing it into the nozzle to melt its end and
making the end shape.
When using Unloading menu, it will load the filament to shape the end of filamnet and unload
it.
If you are forced to pull out the filament and it is stuck inside of the extruder as residuals, you
should repair the module Extruder.

6.7. Separating Extruder module (Mounting)

An electric shock can damage the printer if the detachable extruder is separated or mounted
while the power is [ON].
Separate or mount the detachable Extruder when the power is off.
You can easily separate extruder module from the printer body by unfastening the screws and
Extruder cable.
If there is some problem on the extruder module, use can remove the module from the printer body
and ask AS request with ease.
If it is somehow difficult to detach the extruder module, do not forcibly remove the module, require
the AS with the whole printer unit.
The mounting should be done in reverse order of separating process.
① To separate the extruder module, pull out the Teflon

tube inserted into the filament entry of the extruder
and run unloading to remove the filament inside
the extruder.
It should be noted that separating the detachable extruder part while the filament is inserted
into the extruder can damage the sensor or the equipment.
If unloading is not possible because of a printer problem, etc., cut off the filament at the
filament entry of the extruder and carefully separate the detachable extruder by pressing the
filament handle.
② Turn [OFF](O)the printer.
An electric shock can damage the printer if the
detachable extruder is separated while the power is [ON].
③ Unfasten two cable fixing screws by turning it

counterclockwise using a 2mm Wrench (1), remove
the extruder cable fixing block (2), and pull out the
extruder cable from the extruder module (3). 3
If you use excessive force to remove the cable
connector and cable, it will be damaged as the table 2
1
is the locking Type Connector. Please press the
locking to unlock and pull out the extruder cable.

④ Open the Extruder cover(1), unscrew the internal

extruder module fixing screw(2) and close the
2
extruder cover(3).
Keep the parts such as Cable fixing screw,

3
Extruder module fixing screw, and fixing
block for reuse when assembling the module. 1
⑤ Push the extruder module to the right side to

disassemble it from the extruder bottom fixture(1)
1
and lift it up(2). 2
Please be careful not to be damaged by pole of

printer body or belts.
Periodically open the extruder cover and clean inside of the extruder.
* When opening the extruder cover, ensure there is no printed object on the build plate. The
opening cover may cause the bump against the printed object.
* Be careful not to be damage the internal wiring of extruder. If wire is damaged, it may cause
the malfunction.
* Separate or mount the extruder module only when the printer is turned off and the extruder
nozzle is sufficiently cooled.
* Be careful to avoid being burnt if you have to separate or mount the extruder module when
the nozzle temperature is high.
* Be careful when you separate or mount extruder module, as the excessive force can damage
the extruder parts.
* If you print a model while the extruder module is not properly mounted or the screw is not
tightened, the extruder may malfunction during printing, resulting in a printer error or
malfunction.
Make sure that the extruder module is properly mounted before printing.
* As the extruder unit contains electrical parts, do not touch it with wet hands in order to avoid
electrical shock.

6.8. Cleaning Printer

* Each printer is packaged only after it has been tested.
For this reason, there may be some traces of usage on the heating bed, extruder, nozzle, etc.
when you open the package. You can be assured that this is due to testing.
* When you clean the printer, turn it off first if possible.
6.8.1. Cleaning for normal Auto Leveling

Auto leveling process of Cubicon Style is that the top of the nozzle touches the leveling point of
heated bed to check the current flow, the distance between heated bed and nozzle is recognized
and automatically calibrates the bed leveling. If there is no current flow due to the dirt on the bed
and nozzle, Auto leveling may fails. For the successful leveling, clean the contaminant and do Auto
leveling process.
a. Removing the contaminant of leveling point of heated bed
The highlighted red circles at the above figure are uncoated leveling points for Auto Leveling.
The leveling points of heated bed may be contaminated by the molten filament while Auto Leveling
process. If the contaminant remains without cleaning it, Auto Leveling fails due to sticking to the bed.
Before printing, clean the bed through tweezers and scraper.
Also, nozzle cleaning brush is built in at the left behind of heated bed, which it is made of heat-
resisting rubber to clean the top of nozzle.
If the nozzle cleaning brush has residues, please remove it so as not to cause the secondary
pollution of nozzle tip.
Please contact the authorized AS Center to find out the consumable nozzle cleaning brush.
b. Removing the contaminant of nozzle tip

Even though the leveling points of heated bed are clean, the contaminant of nozzle tip may prevent
the current flow causing failure of leveling.
Heat the nozzle to a level high enough to the using filament and wipe out the pollutant of nozzle tip
using a rag.
In case of considerable carbonized pollutant, wipe out the nozzle tip with a rag
(Slightly dust off through steel brush).
* When you clean the printer while the nozzle is heated, be careful with the hot nozzle.
* It should be noted that the nozzle can be damaged and the print quality deteriorated when you
press the nozzle hole with tweezers, etc.

6.8.2. Cleaning of Heated Bed

The heated bed is the bottom on which the printed object is formed through the extrusion of the
melted filament. It can easily become dirty due to melted filament or filament fragments, and when
printing is continued in this condition, the dirt may adhere to the printed object, damaging the object,
or the printed object may not adhere to the heated bed during printing.
The heated bed must be cleaned before and after printing to prevent defective printing due to dirt.
① Filament residue on the heated bed can be removed using tweezers, a scraper or a brush. Make
sure that the surface of the heated bed is not scratched. If the surface is scratched, the coating
can be removed, and the printed object will not adhere to the heating bed.
② Filament stuck on the heated bed surface during printing or residual left after printing may not be
easily removed. For this type of cleaning, use concentrated acetone to wipe out the pollutants.
Use another wet towel to completely remove the acetone from the bed’s surface before
using the printer again.
* Please use the high purity acetone and water.
* The heated bed may look stained, but it this is natural due to the coating, and there is no
problem with using the heated bed for printing.
* The life of the coating on the heated bed depends on the printing habits of the user. If the
printed output comes off the heated bed too easily, replace the heating bed.
* The heated bed of Cubicon Style does not require the Kapton tape when using the ABS/PLA
certified with Cubicon Style under appropriate temperature conditions.
You can often get better printing results when you use tapes based on user’s personal printing
habit or according to types of printed model, in which case, please make sure you use heat
resistant and 3d printer specific tapes. In case of using normal generic tape, you may get in
trouble of replacing the whole bed due to the glue remaining on the bed.
For a printer using the melted filament, contraction can occur due to the hardening of melted
filament. This may cause the printed object to come off the bottom. Although the problem can be
corrected by changing the print temperature condition, heated bed adhesion or slicing option,
the problem is basically generated by the material, which contracts when it is cooled and
hardened. To solve the problem, consider using a design that distributes the contractile force
during the design of 3D model.
* Do not use a solvent other than the water and acetone on the heating bed. This may damage
the coating.
* When you use acetone to clean the heating bed, make sure that no part other than the heated
bed is stained with the acetone. It may damage the product.
* When using acetone, make sure there is sufficient ventilation and use it with caution. (Strictly
follow the safety rules provided on the acetone package.)
* Do not disassemble the heated bed or apply excessive force to remove the printed object. The
impact can cause a problem.

6.8.3. Cleaning of Extruder

The extruder nozzle is positioned at the bottom of the extruder module, and pushes out the melted
filament to form the printed object.
After extended use, the printing condition may become poor due to filament residue or external
pollutants, and in severe cases the nozzle may even become plugged, requiring the replacement of
the nozzle.
You need to clean the nozzle regularly to use it for an extended period of time.
a. Maintaining the Nozzle in Clean Condition for a Long term period

If a nozzle becomes plugged, it is likely to continue causing problems until it is replaced. As it is
possible to keep a nozzle clean for a long time through good management, take note of the
following tips
① Check the nozzle’s condition regularly and clean it.
② If the filament discharge condition is anomalous, such as the filament coming out of the nozzle
during printing being too thin or not uniform, stop printing and clean the nozzle. This should be
performed immediately, as a pollutant inside the nozzle can deteriorate the nozzle’s condition at
any time.
③ Sufficiently clean the nozzle if possible when the filament is replaced. In particular, the nozzle
must be cleaned when a different type of filament with different printing temperature
condition is being replaced, such as ABS or PLA.
It is recommended that the detachable extruder part specific to the filament be used when a
filament with a different printing temperature is used.
④ Generally, a filament pollutes the nozzle more severely if it has a color (incl. white) or has a
darker color. Clean the nozzle more often when you use such filaments.
⑤ A filament will have properties that are different from its initial properties if it has been melted
once and hardened. In other words, if heating/cooling is repeated without the filament inside the
nozzle being discharged, the filament will become the pollutant, and will not be able to be used
for printing. Therefore, make sure that the heating/cooling is not repeated without the filament
nozzle being discharged.
⑥ The filament will begin to be polluted by moisture and dust as soon as it is removed from the
vacuum pack. Start using the filament as soon as possible after it is opened, as the nozzle will
become plugged when an excess of pollutants is accumulated.
b. Cleaning Inside Nozzle through Loading process

① Pull out the filament sufficiently by selecting {Prepare > Load Filament} from the functional
menu. Loading will stop automatically after a certain amount of filament is discharged if the user
does not stop it.
Set the temperature of load filament to be the same as the filament temperature.
② If the print condition is not satisfactory after step ①, set the temperature of Load Filament to a
higher temperature than the filament temperature and repeat step ①.
* Do not raise the temperature more than 10% higher than the normal filament discharge
temperature. This may change the filament property and intensify nozzle plugging.
* Do not perform “step b” if the filament does not come out of the nozzle or is too thin. This may
split the filament or twist the filament inside the fixed extruder part and cause a problem.

c. Cleaning Inside the Nozzle Using Nozzle Management Pin

If you cannot improve the printing quality with loading or cannot load the filament, it is likely that
residue has been left in the nozzle or that nozzle hole plugging is too severe for the pollutant to be
removed by loading only. In that case, clean inside the nozzle with the enclosed nozzle
management pin, in consideration of following:
① Remove the remaining filament inside the Extruder through Unloading process.
② Heat the extruder (nozzle) to a temperature that is not more than 10% higher than the discharge
temperature of the filament remaining inside the nozzle.
This is to sufficiently melt the remaining filament inside the extruder, pay attention not to heat up
the temperature of extruder nozzle which the filament may be carbonized and block the nozzle.
③ While pressed the filament handle (1), insert the nozzle management pin into the filament
insertion hole (2), and slowly move it back and force to push the residue out of the nozzle. It will
be easy to clean the nozzle considering the distance from filament insertion entry to the top of
nozzle.
④ When the impurities inside the nozzle are removed, wait a while at high temperature and repeat
the removal of the impurities(STEP 3). This step is to remove the impurities after waiting for the
impurities stuck on the inner wall of the nozzle to be melted and lid down.
⑤ Load or unload the filament in use to melt the filament inside the nozzle, and repeat the steps
beginning with ①. This is to remove the impurities by dissolving them into the melted filament.
The figure on the right shows the discharged filament after

loading to remove the impurities inside the nozzle. It clearly
shows the filament polluted with impurities at the edge. Remove
the impurities inside the nozzle sufficiently until the point at which
the filament does not show the pollution any longer.
Since the pollution inside the nozzle is usually detected when the nozzle is plugged during printing
despite being normal when the printing began, proper management of the nozzle is needed.
If the filament is discharged (pushed down to the bottom) from the nozzle or the print quality is poor,
it is likely that the nozzle has been damaged. In this case, replace the nozzle. Make sure the nozzle
is replaced by an authorized service technician.

d. Cautions When Using Nozzle Management Pin

Proper use of the nozzle management pin can greatly help nozzle management.
However, as the nozzle management pin moves along the path of the filament’s movement inside
the extruder, improper use of the nozzle management pin can cause damage or pollution to the
extruder inside, which can create severe problems for the extruder. As an extruder problem caused
by the improper use of the nozzle management pin is considered to be damage caused by the user,
it will not be covered by the warranty.
① Plugging of Nozzle by Damaged Part

Using the nozzle management pin with excessive force will damage the part on the moving path
or scratch the part, causing fragments to fall inside the nozzle and plug the nozzle. This will
make it very difficult to unplug the nozzle, and the whole nozzle rod may have to be replaced.
For this reason, you should be careful not to damage the parts.
② Secondary Pollution by Filament Residue Stuck on the Nozzle Management Pin

When the nozzle management pin is used, the melted filament residue will be stuck at the edge
of the nozzle management pin. If you pull out the nozzle management pin while the filament
residue is not sufficiently cooled, the filament residue may be stuck in the entry of the nozzle rod
or on the parts in the path of filament movement inside the extruder, preventing the nozzle
management pin or filament from moving.
* When disassembling the extruder module while the nozzle is hot, wear gloves to avoid burns.
* Use the nozzle management pin with extreme caution until you are familiar with it.
As improper use of the nozzle management pin can damage the extruder part beyond repair, it
is recommended not to use it if you are not familiar with its use.
e. Cleaning Outside Nozzle

The nozzle is at a high temperature during printing, and
often has melted filament residue stuck on its surface.
Filament stuck on the nozzle surface can adhere to the
printed object during printing, creating stains.
① Heat the nozzle to a level high enough to melt the
filament stuck on the surface. Then, remove the
filament residue with the tweezers or wipe it out with a rag.
② If the pollution on the nozzle’s surface is severe, cool the nozzle completely and turn off the
printer. Wipe out the pollutant using a rag with a small amount of acetone. Use the printer only
after the acetone is completely vaporized.
③ During the loading or auto title process before printing, some filament is taken out through the
nozzle to form the printed object with clean filament. Remove any residues on the nozzle before
printing, as they can affect the printed object
* When you clean the printer while the nozzle is heated, be careful with the hot nozzle.
* It should be noted that the nozzle can be damaged and the print quality deteriorated when you
press the nozzle hole with tweezers, etc.
* If you use acetone for cleaning the nozzle, be careful not to stain parts other than the metallic
nozzle with acetone. This may damage the product.
* When using the acetone, make sure there is sufficient ventilation and use it with caution.
(Strictly follow the safety rules stated on the acetone package.)

6.8.4. Replacement of Clean Filter

To filter the pollutants generated by the FFF type printer, Cubicon Single uses a clean filter
organized into three filter layers: Purafil catalyst, HEPA filter and deodorizing filter.
If the clean filter unit contains too many pollutants, it not only will degrade the filter’s performance
but will also interfere with the operation of the filter fan, causing problems. If the pollution of the
clean filter is too severe, do not clean the filter but replace it.
Although the clean filter replacement interval differs according to the printing environment and user
printing habits, it is recommended to replace it every 6 months.
The clean filter should be installed in the correct direction in the case. If the direction is not
correct, the filter’s performance will deteriorate, and it will cause a ventilation fan problem.
6.9. Firmware Update

Connect the PC with the printer using a USB cable. Download the latest firmware file.
To improve the stability, the Cubicon Style applies the switch at the right bottom of the machine.
Before the firmware update, move the switch to position as highlighted in red at the above
picture.
After the firmware update is completed, move the switch to position.
For more details on how to update the Firmware please refer to the Cubicreator user manual.
Please use our provided Firmware (Cubicon Style) when the Firmware Update.
If you update through other machine Firmware data, it may cause the damage on the machine
and the safty issue.
Please make sure if the selected Firmware is compatible with the Cubicon Style (3DP-210F).

7. Printing
This chapter describes several important scenarios of actual printing using the SD memory card
after the printer is installed.
(Refer to the Cubicreator Software Operation Manual for the details of printing using a USB
connection to a PC.)
7.1. Printing for the First Time

After the printer is installed, print a sample as shown below to check the condition of the printer.
Before turning on the printer, confirm that all packing materials inside the printer have been
removed, the cables and parts are not damaged, the bed and extruder are properly installed,
and the spool mounting/rotation direction/rotation condition are normal. If there is any
problem, correct it first before turning on the printer.
① Mount the filament spool in the spool carrier of the ② Turn [ON] the printer.
printer and push the filament all the way to the entry
of the Teflon tube inside the printer.
* Number on the display changes according

to the surrounding temp.
When switching power on, the machine automatically check the main parts relevent to the
heating.
If you can see the messege “Check SelfTestResult” instead of “Cubicon Ready”,
there is someproblem on the main parts, therefore stop operating the printer and go to the
{Configuration>SeftTest Result} menu to find out the part indicated as “FAIL”.
In case of difficulty on the self-mainternance, please contact the authorized AS Center.
③ Press the [OK] button of the display and select the

{Prepare > Load Filament} menu.

④ Select {Temp} in {Load Filament} and turn the

o
[ENTER] button to set the temperature to 240 C
and heat the nozzle.
When the extruder nozzle temperature reaches the

target temperature, the “Wait…” message will
disappear and the {Load Start} menu will be
displayed.
When you select {Load Start},

the “Wait…” message flickers
and the extruder motor to move the
filament is operated.
When the movement of Extruder is stopped, ,

Insert the filament into the filament entry of the
extruder. When you push it approximately 3cm into
the entry, it is notched and automatically pushed
down. Manually push it until it is notched.
When some amount of melted filament
is pushed out of the nozzle, press
the [OK]button to stop filament loading.
Do not worry if the color of the melted filament that

comes out of the nozzle during loading is different
from the loaded filament. It is filament that was used
during the test and left in the nozzle.
Please remove the dirt on the level point of the

heated bed plate.
* It is recommended to set the nozzle temperature during the very first printing as the ABS
temperature, regardless of the type of loaded filament, if ABS or PLA is used. It is set to
o
240 C for the final print quality test. During the test, the ABS load temperature is used to
support both ABS and PLA filaments.
(Refer to “6.5. Cautions and Notes”, “7.2. Printing after Replacing Filament”)
* If the type of filament used in previous printing is not clear, set the extruder nozzle
temperature based on the filament of higher temperature, and heat the nozzle.
* When replacing the filament, it is recommended to load the filament so that a sufficient
amount of filament is pushed out of the nozzle (1m or longer).

⑤ Insert the enclosed SD card in the SD memory reader

and select the file to be printed. Press the [OK] button
and select {SD Card} from the functional menu on the
LCD screen. Select a G-Code file (*.hvs) from the list in
the SD card.
Select an “ABS_*.hvs” file if the loaded filament is ABS,

and a “PLA_*.hvs” file if it is PLA. Only files with the .hvs
extension can be used for printing.
The enclosed SD card contains the G-Code (*.hvs) files of

the models with small printing time for sample print.

If the printed object is not removed from the

heating bed even after the heating bed is
cooled, create a small space at the edge of the
bottom of the printed object with a flat object,
and the object will be easily removed.
* ABS and PLA have different print temperatures (extruder and heating bed).
The temperature condition must be reflected in the G-Code file (*.hvs for Cubicon) when the
file is created.
A sample G-Code file is included in the SD card for novice users.
To print a 3D model, a user can create a G-Code file (*.hvs) of the 3D model using the latest
Cubicreator slicing program included in the enclosed SD card or downloaded from the
Cubicon homepage, then print the file.
* The printing condition differs according to the filament type (ABS or PLA) and according to
the color even for the same type. In extreme cases, the condition may differ according to the
filament manufacturing lot. As well, you can improve the print quality by fine-tuning the print
condition according to the 3D model. To obtain the best print quality, it is important to find
the optimum condition of the filament according to the model.
* The printing temperature condition of the extruder and heating bed must be the same as the
filament temperature. If not, the print quality may deteriorate, and in extreme cases may
cause extruder problems.
Check the print temperature condition of the printer and filament in use before printing.
If the temperature condition in the G-Code file differs from the filament temperature
condition, you can change the temperature condition by selecting {Temperature > Extruder /
Bed} from the functional menu.
* If you use excessive force to remove the printed object from the heating bed after printing, it
may cause dislocation of the heating bed or electric shock and damage the printer. Wait
until the temperature of the heating bed falls to room temperature.

7.2. Printing after Replacing Filament

As described in “6.6. Replacing Filament “, it is the process of unloading a previous filament (A) and
loading a new filament (B) to use other sort of filament.
The process can be divided into the following steps:

1) Unload the old filament (A) (Remove the filament(A) from the extruder)
{Prepare>Unload Filament} Nozzle heating temperature (UT)  “Unload Start”  “Pull Out
Filament”  {Unloading Stop}.
2) Remove the old filament(A) from the filament carrier and mount the new filament(B).
3) Load new filament(B) (Insert the new filament(B) into the extruder, melt it and push it out of the
extruder nozzle)
{Prepare>Load Filament}  Nozzle heating temperature(LT)  “Load Start”  Loading Stop
4) Select the G-Code file created with the temperature condition of the new filament, and print.
Even experienced users often make mistakes when setting the nozzle heating temperature, i.e. the
extruder nozzle temperature, during loading and unloading.
During unloading, set the nozzle heating temperature (UT) to pull out the existing filament
(A). During loading, set the temperature to insert the new filament (B) into the extruder and
discharge it, as well as the nozzle heating temperature (LT) to remove the filament (A) that is
already melted in the nozzle. It is important to load a sufficient amount of new filament (B) and
discharge it in order to remove any filament remaining in the nozzle.
This is the most important step in replacing a filament with a new filament.
PLA is generally melted at a lower temperature than ABS. When replacing an ABS filament with a
PLA filament, if the nozzle heating temperature during loading (LT) is set to the PLA temperature,
the ABS filament inside the nozzle will not melt, and thus will remain as residue, plugging the nozzle.
When replacing a PLA filament with an ABS filament, the PLA filament remaining on the nozzle’s
inner wall is sticky and cannot be easily removed. For this reason, a sufficient amount must be
loaded to remove the PLA from the nozzle several times to avoid nozzle plugging.
The following table shows the nozzle heating temperatures (UT)/(LT) according to the filament type
(A)/(B) when the filament (A) is replaced by the filament (B) given an ABS temperature (extruder
o o
temperature) of 240 C and a PLA temperature of 210 C.

The values in the table are just examples, and are not absolute values. The users must set the
optimum condition based on their experience.

7.3. Replacing Filament during Printing

There may be the need to replace the filament during 3D printing because the filament in use has run
out or the user needs to use another filament.
To support this, Cubicon Style has a function that enables the user to suspend printing, replace the
filament and then resume printing.
This process is described below.
Press the [OK] button during printing to display the functional menu.
As described in “6.4. Functional Menu during Printing” a different functional menu is displayed when
the [OK] button is pressed during printing.
① The figure on the right shows that printing is in

progress.
To pause printing, press [OK] to display the functional

menu and select {Pause Print}. The menu structure
differs from print standby mode.
The menu function can be accessed using the [OK], [UP], [DOWN], and [BACK] buttons.
② Select {Pause Print} and wait for a while. Printing is

suspended, and the menu shown in the figure is
displayed.
The extruder of the printer moves to the standby
position (rear center) and is fixed.
Printing is not stopped immediately, but after the data
in the buffer memory is printed. The actual time will
differ according to the 3D model.
If using Pause / Continue function during printing, the filament inside the nozzle flows out to
cotaminate the printed object or to change the print quality due to the difference of molding
condition, we recommend not to use Pause except a special case, and please ensure the
sufficient filament is fed into the printer before printing.
When printing is paused, the extruder moves to the standby position and remains fixed there.
Being fixed means that the extruder is locked so that the X/Y/Z movement motor is not operated.
If the user manually moves the X/Y (extruder) and Z (heating bed) position, the printing position
can be incorrect when printing is resumed and cause the printer to malfunction.
Never change the extruder and heating bed positions when the movement motor is locked.
③ Proceed with following steps.

{Unload Filament} Nozzle heating“Pull Out Filament”{Unloading Stop}[BACK]Replacing the filament
spool in the spool carrier and inserting the filament all the way to the edge of the Teflon tube in the printer main
body {Load Filament}Nozzle heating“Input Filament”{Loading Stop}
[BACK]

* The nozzle heating temperature during unloading is set to the nozzle heating temperature
before printing was paused unless the user changes it. It can be changed in {Unload
Filament>Temp.}.
* The nozzle heating temperature during loading is set to be the same as the nozzle heating
temperature during unloading. It can be changed in {Load Filament>Temp.}.
The nozzle heating temperature during loading should be set in consideration of both existing
and new filaments.
④ After replacing the filament, select the {Continue

Print} menu and resume printing.
The extruder and heating bed of the printer return to

the position before the pause, and printing is
resumed.
When {Continue Print} is selected, the extruder unit moves to the printer home position, which
is left forward, pushes out some filament to maintain a clean discharge, and then moves to the
print continuing position.
You can easily remove the filament at the edge of the nozzle during loading.
7.4. Supplying Filament after Filament Runs Out during Printing

The gear connected to the Extruder motor moves the filament downward.
If the filament is stuck in gear, it can be removed through Unloading process.
However, when the filament is used up, there is the remaining filament inside which cannot be
pulled out from gear of the Extruder to the top of the nozzle.
1 2A 2B 3
No Filament
Filament Remaining
in Extruder
The above picture shows the scenario in which filament runs out during printing.
Although the filament is not visible from outside, as shown in the picture (1), the filament fragment
actually remains inside the extruder, as shown in the figure (2A) and (2B).
If you insert a new filament without removing the filament fragments remaining in the extruder, the
new filament will not be pushed out of the nozzle and can cause a problem with the extruder. For
this reason, you must unload the existing filament.
The remaining filament under the Extruder gear should be pulled out of the nozzle by inserting
nozzle management pin when the nozzle temperature is heated up at the proper temperature, as

shown in the figure(3).

Otherwise, push in the solid filament such as ABS/PLA through loading process(manually or
automatically) and continue to print after checking the extrusion of the remaining filament through
nozzle.
For more details on loading and unloading, refer to“6.6. Replacing Filament” and “7.3. Replacing
Filament during Printing”.
8. Troubleshooting
* Problems with the printer hardware can sometimes be solved by initializing the printer through
{Configuration > Initialize EEPROM} in the functional menu or by updating the firmware. Please
refer to the Cubicreator Operation Manual for information on updating the firmware.
* In some models, the print quality can depend greatly on the print condition or the Cubicreator
option setting during G-Code creation. For this reason, you should attempt different print
conditions or option settings to find the optimum print quality.
When the printer has the problem, it is important to make sure the issue clearly. If nessary, please
send the picture or video to the CS Center.
1) I cannot see the data on the SD card.

 Confirm that the SD card is properly inserted into the SD card reader.
Confirm that it is oriented in the correct direction, and insert it again.
 The SD card may have been damaged. Use another card and check.
 Cubicon Style support the SD card formatted in FAT 32 File system.
In case of the SD Card with different file system, please format to FAT32.
It may not support FAT32 according to the SD Card.
 Cubicon Single supports files with file names that use alphabet characters only. If you use
another language for the file name, the name may be corrupted or empty. Change the file
name to use alphabet characters only and try again.
 Only file of *.hvs extension can be displayed on the LCD display. Please make sure if the *.hvs
File is stored in SD Card.
 The number of Files in the SD Card is limited up to 150 per each folder. Clean up the folder
because it is not shown if there are more than 150 files in the folder.
 Folder of the SD Card will be recognized up to step# 2 Sub- folder.
In other words, it is recognized as Root / Sub1 / Sub2.
2) The data in the SD card is not output.

 Confirm that the file to be printed is a G-Code format file with the *.hvs extension.
Cubicon Single can use only G-Code files (with the *.hvs extension) format that have been
sliced with Cubicreator. G-Code files created using other slicing programs may not be
supported.
 Please make sure if it is set as “Cubicon Style (3DP-210F)” in Cubicreator. It may cause the
printing error when it is set as other machine.
 The data in the SD card may be damaged. Create the G-Code file again and try it.
 If you set the wrong option on the Cubicreator when slicing it cannot be printed well. Use the

Cubicreator to make sure that G-Code file is normal. If the print path which seems G-code
appears to be an unusual path, G-Code is incorrect.
 The slicing through the Cubicreator cannot work well due to the wrong 3D Model. Open the
original 3d model through the Cubicreator, check if there is any problem on slicing or G-Code
convertion3D and determine whether the 3D model is ok using other 3D model inspection
program.
 Data may have been incorrectly saved in the SD card because of a security program or a
virus. Check the data, make the necessary correction and try again.
3) I cannot print with the PC connection.

 Check to determine if there is any problem with the PC to printer connection via USB.
 Check whether the Cubicon Style driver is installed in the PC. Install it if needed..
 Please make sure if it is set as “Cubicon Style (3DP-210F)” in Cubicreator. It may cause the
printing error when it is set as other machine.
 Confirm that the OS of the PC is supported by Cubicon.
If it is OSX(MAC OS), you should use more than the Cubicreator v2 for OSX, Baudarate of
printer should be set as 115,200
 Please make sure if the Firmware Update switch is correctly located. (Refer to “6.9. Firmware
Update”)
The switch should be located in normal position when Firmware Update and normal printing
process.
 Check to determine whether the PC has been infected by a virus. Correct the problem and
reinstall the driver.
4) The filament is discharged out of the nozzle.

 Ensure that the filament is authentic.
Because some filament has the different temperature condition to the authorized filament or
thermal deformation it may cause the problem when extruding filament and therefore the
Extruder can be broken down. The failure of printer by using the unauthorized filament is
excluded from the warranty service.
 Please make sure if temperature condition is properly set according to the filament. If the
material with low extrusion temp such as PLA is set at the high temperature like ABS, it may
cause the considerable transformation due to high temperature of heated bed and nozzle
causing slow movement inside of the extruder. Please make sure proper temperature
condition according to the filament.
 In case the filament is twisted or jammed inside of the Extruder, it may cause the problem on
the extruding to stop extruding the filament.
The twist problem may be improved with decreasing the temperature of inside of the
equipment.
 Confirm that the filament is seamlessly supplied. If the filament in the spool is twisted or bent,
correct the problem.
Twisted or wound filament may be cause the continuous problem, so it is recommended to
discard it.
 Contaminated Filament by humidity or dirt can be changed from the first opening.
Using this filament cause the malfunction such as blockage of the Extruder. Please use the
opened filament as fast as possible, secure the filament to the spool not to be wound and
keep it in the vinyl for a short period to prevent the humidity/dirt.
 Make sure the thickness of supplied filament is too thick or thin. Please use the 1.6~1.9mm
diameter of filament for the accurate supply.
Using thin or thick filament may cause the malfunction such as getting jammed to the
equipment.
 Confirm that the extruder module and extruder cable are properly mounted.
 Confirm that the temperature conditions of the filament in use and extruder of the printer are
correct.
 The nozzle may have been plugged. Clean the nozzle, referring to “6.8.3. Cleaning of
Extruder”.
 Have the nozzle replaced by an authorized service technician. The nozzle is consumables.
5) The printed object does not adhere to the bottom (heating bed).
 Confirm that the filament is authentic. It may cause the malfunction of printer while printing
because some filament is not stick to the heated bed.
 Contaminated Filament by humidity or dirt can be changed from the first opening.
Using this filament cause the malfunction such as blockage of the Extruder. Please use the
opened filament as fast as possible, secure the filament to the spool not to be wound and
keep it in the vinyl for a short period to prevent the humidity/dirt.
 Remove the pollutant from the heating bed.
Do not use wet wipes because washing ingredient of some wet wipes can contaminate the
coating of heated bed..
 Please check the Functional Menu {Configuration > Auto Leveling > OFFSET} value and set it
“0”. Do not change the offset value except for special purpose.
 Confirm that the temperature conditions of the filament in use, heating bed and extruder are
correct. In Cubicon Single, the heating bed and filament in use must have the proper
temperatures to adhere well to each other.
 Check whether the area stuck to the heating bed is too small, or the bottom of the printed
object is irregular. You can correct the problem by using the bottom aid option or by slowing
down the first layer print speed when creating the G-Code.
 Use the proper tape when needed. For some models or filament types, it may be helpful to
use a separate tape such as Kapton tape on the heated bed.
 Check whether the coating of the heated bed is damaged, or the heated bed is bent
excessively. In that case, the heating bed must be replaced. Use an authorized service.
6) Parts (mostly bottom boundaries) of the printed object are taken off the bottom
 Follow the solution on #5 the printed object is not stuck to the bottom (heating bed).
 The problem can be partially improved by changing options such as internal filling when
creating the G-Code.
 This is due to contraction of the material caused by the printer using the thermal melting
method.
Adjust the printing condition (extruder, heating bed and printer inside temperatures) or use
material that does not contract in this way. Although contraction may improve with some
materials, this is a natural phenomenon that occurs as the melted filament is solidified. The
most effective way to correct the problem is to modify the model to reduce the
contraction.
7) The middle of the printed object is cracked.

 This is caused by contraction of the material caused by the printer using the thermal melting
method.
Adjust the printing condition (extruder, heating bed and printer inside temperatures) or use a
material that does not contract in this way. Although there may be less contraction with some
materials, it is a natural phenomenon that occurs as the melted filament is solidified. The
most effective way to correct the problem is to modify the model to reduce the
contraction.
 The problem can be partially alleviated by changing options such as internal filling when
creating the G-Code.
8) I cannot remove the printed object from the bottom (heating bed).
 Wait until the heating bed is sufficiently cooled. The heating bed can be damaged if you
remove the printed object from the heating bed by force.
In Cubicon Single, the printed object is stuck to the bottom during printing and can be easily
removed when the heating bed is cooled after printing is completed. The temperature at
which the printed object is removed depends on the type of filament being used and the
model.
 If the printed object is not taken off even after the heating bed is sufficiently cooled (to room
temperature), push a flat object into the bottom of the printed object to take it off.
 If the residues of the printed object remain fixed on the heating bed, the printed object may be
stuck to the residue, and not taken off the bed. Always keep the heating bed surface clean.
 If you do not completely remove the acetone from the bed after using the acetone to clean the
heating bed, the printed object may not come off the heating bed. After using the acetone,
completely wipe it out with wet cloth.
 You must replace the heating bed if the coating of the heating bed is damaged. Use the
authorized service.
9) Printing is completed, but only parts of the model are printed. Other parts are not printed
at all, or are incorrectly printed.
 Refer to the “4) The filament is not extruded out of the nozzle” and take the proper action.
 Check the model and G-Code. If the model is improperly designed, there can be a problem
with G-Code creation. Modify the model and try again.
 For some models or supports, the printed object can interfere with the support, causing
printing problems. This problem can be corrected by changing the slicing method (adjustment
of the printed object, change of direction, etc.).
 Some filament (like Flexible) ranges narrow nozzle temperature spectrum. In case of printing
with that filament, slow down the print speed and adjust the nozzle temperature as the speed
differs according to the print model.
 Remove the foreign substances from inside the nozzle. Clean the nozzle, referring to. “6.8.3.
Cleaning the Extruder”.
 If the problem continues when there is no problem with the model, replace the nozzle. Use the
authorized service.
10) Printing is terminated due to failed auto leveling without completion.

 The printer executes auto leveling of the bed before beginning printing. If the auto leveling
fails for whatever reason (after several automatic attempts), the message “Tiltalign Failed” is
displayed and printing is stopped. As the problem can be solved by rebooting the printer, turn
off the printer, wait for around 10 seconds, and turn on the printer again.
 Re operate auto leveling after removing the dirt on the leveling point of heated bed and top of
the nozzle. If there is no current flow due to the dirt on the bed and nozzle, Auto leveling may
fails.
(Refer to “6.8.1. Cleaning for normal Auto Leveling ”)
 Make sure if the nozzle touches the leveling point of bed when Auto Leveling calibration. If it
touches out of leveling point, remove the bed plate, remount it and do auto leveling process
again. If the problem continues, please contact the authorized AS Center to adjust the bed
location.
 In case the heated bed is installed at height deviation of right/left side of heated bed.
Or the heated bed is incorrectly mounted. Then, remove the bed plate and do auto leveling
after remounting it. If the problem continues, please contact the authorized AS Center.
 If the heated bed is considerably bent or there is no current flow at the leveling point of heated
bed due to the contamination, the heated bed should be replaced. Please contact AS Center
to replace the consumable heated bed.
 Check whether the vibration in the environment affects the printer during auto leveling. Auto
leveling can fail if the vibration is transmitted to the printer.
 If the problem continues, replace the heated bed or have the authorized personnel check the
printer. Use the authorized service.
11) Printing is stopped before completion

 Check the power supply
 Check the connection with the PC if the printer is connected to a PC.
 The printer executes auto leveling of the bed before beginning printing. If the auto leveling
fails for whatever reason (after several automatic attempts), the message “Tiltalign Failed” is
displayed and printing is stopped. As the problem can be solved by rebooting the printer, turn
off the printer, wait for around 10 seconds, and turn on the printer again
 Check if there are any items indicated as “FAIL” on the functional menu {Configuration >
SelfTest Result > Test Again}. If the some parts is self-tested and indicated as “FAIL”, the
operating stops due to the safety. In case the self-test can be conducted by yourself, proceed
the print.
Otherwise, please contact authorized AS Center.
 If the problem continues, please send the picture or video to the CS Center.
