The Configuration Assistant can be found under the Help menu, and as long as you have created an online Simplif圓D account, will pull the latest printer profiles from the cloud. Instead of making you configure all these settings by yourself, you can use the Configuration Assistant, where we do all the hard work for you. This contains all of the settings needed to print a 3D part. That’s just a fancy name for the type of 3D printing that all of these extrusion based printers use.
In this case, it’s an FFF process where FFF stands for Fused Filament Fabrication. I can either double click or click edit process settings to open it up.
Simplif圓D puts all of the settings you’re going to use for a print into something called a process, which is here in the lower left. Today, we’re going to look at how printer profiles are managed in Simplif圓D.
