Printer Settings

Printer settings allow you to select the ceramic 3D Printer you use. POTTERWARE uses cookies and will remember the type of printer you use so that you will not have to change this each time, but if you refresh settings, or disable cookies, you may want to make sure you have the correct printer selected.

Printer Type

Printing with 3D Potter Printers: (Standard, Standard Duet, Micro Duet, XL Duet, and SCARA), as well as Lutum and WASP ceramic printers is possible with POTTERWARE 4.0. If you experience issues related to using your printer, please contact us.

Printer Speed

The printer speed is set to the best possible setting for your printer (default setting: 3000). You may with to adjust the speed of your printer on your printer itself before adjusting the POTTERWARE printer speed. You may also be able to adjust the speed from your printer before or during a print, depending on the type of printer you use.

Extrusion Speed

The extrusion speed is set to the best possible setting for your printer (default setting: 100). You may wish to adjust the extrusion speed of your printer on your printer itself before adjusting the POTTERWARE extrusion speed. You may also be able to adjust the speed from your printer before or during a print, depending on the type of printer you use.

Skirt Offset

The skirt is the “ring” that gets printed around the base and is intended to be cut away. Skirts serve a useful purpose because they help prime your extruder and establish a smooth flow of clay before the print begins. Observing the skirt also allows you to detect and adjust any leveling or adhesion issues before the actual model begins printing. A larger skirt will take up more room on your print surface, but also give you more time to ensure a smooth print.

This value represents the number of millimeters the skirt will print away from your model (default setting: 10mm).

Only applies when you are printing a base.

Scara X and Y Positions

If your Printer Type is set to 3D Potter SCARA, you can adjust the location of the center of your printer in the X and Y axis.

Only applies to SCARA printers.
