== Information ==
* The printer has been retired (went back to Rorist), thanks for the good care :)
* Shop: http://printrbot.com/shop/printrbot-simple/
* How-To: http://help.printrbot.com/c/2014_Printrbot_simple
* Calibrate: http://3.dmake.me/blog/2014/calibrate-3d-printer/
* It uses 1.75mm filament
* Print area is 150mm 100mm x 150mm 100mm x 150mm100mm
== Software ==
* A RaspberryPi The printer is controller with any PC attached to our USB and using the Cura software.* Use the lateste Cura and the "Printrbot with [https://github.com/guysoft/OctoPi OctoPi operating system] simple 2014 maker edition" profile (custom Raspbiansee param)* == Cura parameters ==[[httpImage://octoprintsimple1.org/ OctoPrintpng|x200px]] is accessible on port 80 locally on http://octopi.local/ to control the Simple* OctoPrint slices locally using Cura** if you have big models slice on your PC and upload the .gcode* A webcam can be attached by USB and will usually be recognized by Motion and available on http[[Image://octopisimple2.local:8081 for streaming/image capturepng|x200px]]
== Running ==
* Check the Z level (going at the axe home), the head must slightly touch the bed and not pressing on it
* Check the filament freedom, as the simple doesn't have a spool holder
* '''Check X and Y rope tension''' == Calibration ==* Do It must be done once in a while* By manually going on each end X and Y, then homing Z. Always go up a little bit on Z before moving the head* Bed screws are now locked using some of those screw glue, so it should stay calibrated longer* Z end stop is glued, it was moving, Z axis should stay calibrated longer* There is a mechanical problem on the Y axis, to be calibrated the bed is not aliment leveled compared to the raspberry pi from ground, it's working though == Testing ==Interesting stuff to print for testing the quality and calibration * http://www.3dbenchy.com/* 5mm steps https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:24238* Single wall (0.4mm) https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:271086* Overhang, bridges, holes and a PClot of tests https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1363023
