Slice: In operating a 3D printer, it is most critical that you have a good understanding of your preferred
slicing engine before attempting your own prints. Slicing engines are used to convert an STL file into the
GCODE file, which operates the printer. A GCODE file provides the commands that enable the printer to
print a 3D object. We highly recommend Simplify3D. We have found Simplify3D to be one of the best
slicing engines available, we provide a license for a downloadable copy with your Stacker Printer and
have profiles for each Stacker model available on our website . To receive your copy of Simplify3D,
please be sure to register your printer and contact
purchase your free copy of Simplify3D from our website. Slic3r and Cura do a good job and are free to
use.
