How to Check a file in Cura:

The Goal of this is to let you investigate the time and results of your printing job before you come into the lab.

1. Download the correct version of Ultimaker Cura listed below. We recommend uninstalling other versions so as not to cause any confusion.

• Current Version Lab is using: 5.7.2

  • Windows

  • Link to other downloads

2. Import the Utlimaker S5/S7 Printer:

	Select the printer tab and click add printer:

	Select Local / Non Networked Printer:

	Select the Ultimaker S5:

	Select the Generic PLA filament

	Disable the Second Head:

4. Import the most up to date settings profile provided by NYIT Fab Lab.

• Download Current file: Cura Default Template

    Import Setting and use it to "Slice" your model
  

5. Bring your .STL File you exported from RHINOCEROS into Ultimaker Cura

6. Click Slice!

This should give a good estimate of how long/how much material your job will take!

We charge $0.07 per gram.
