Topic: Xyz ware problems

I'm still somewhat of a noob imprinting, I've had my machine a couple months, but generally have had good luck with the small stuff I've printed. I have a friend out in San Francisco that wants a t-rex skull showerhead. Every time I go to print the software freezes up, I don't know if it's my computer or the program, but I figured I would ask if anyone else was having issues on larger size prints.

Re: Xyz ware problems

The XYZ software does not handle large objects well when it slices them. Your best bet would be to slice with another program then import into XYZ ware. There are procedures posted to do this.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!
