-====== Tips & Tricks ====== 
-  
-===== General ===== 
-Here you will find information about general issues concerning the operation of the RepRap Industrial in your specific work environment. 
- 
-==== Commandline Access to the linux operating system via SSH ==== 
-Use SSH on your computer connected to the same LAN as your 3D printer to log in to the RepRap Industrials'​ built-in BeagleBone Black. You can use the hostname from the printers'​ [[reprap-industrial-v1:​manual#​Setup|Backend-URL]] and log in with the following access data: 
-  User: kiosk 
-  Password: eight-digit combination from the serial number at the back of the device. Take the first two four-digit blocks - XX-AAAA-BBBB-CCCC-YYYY becomes an "​AAAABBBB"​ password. 
- 
-==== Setting a static IP address for RepRap Industrial ethernet connection ==== 
-First, [[#​Commandline Access to the linux operating system via SSH|establish a commandline connection]] to the printer. 
- 
-From within the terminal session, edit the network configuration via the command line editor "​nano"​ 
-  sudo nano /​etc/​network/​interfaces 
-  (use the same password as for the SSH connection) 
- 
-The current DHCP setup looks like: 
-  # The primary network interface 
-  auto eth0 
-  iface eth0 inet dhcp 
-   ​pre-up iptables-restore </​etc/​iptables.rules 
- 
-Change the setup according to your needs. 
-Example: 
-    # The primary network interface 
-    auto eth0 
-    iface eth0 inet static 
-    address 192.168.1.20 
-    netmask 255.255.2555.0 
-    network 192.468.1.0 
-    broadcast 192.168.1.255 
-    gateway 192.168.1.254 
-    dns-search family.local 
-    dns-nameservers 192.168.1.254 
-      pre-up iptables-restore </​etc/​iptables.rules 
- 
-The rest of the file remains unchanged. Save the file using CTRL+X and confirm the overwrite query with "​Y"​. 
-Disconnect and finish by typing 
-  exit 
- 
-Shut down (see [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Manual control]]) and reboot (power-on button, [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Electronic chamber|11]] in [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Electronic chamber|fig. 4]]) the RepRap Industrial to establish the alterations. 
-<WRAP clear> </​WRAP>​ 
- 
-==== Use a custom NTP server for time signals ==== 
-First, [[#​Commandline Access to the linux operating system via SSH|establish a commandline connection]] to the printer. 
- 
-From within the terminal session, stop the NTP daemon background process 
-  sudo service ntp stop 
-  (use the same password as for the SSH connection) 
-  ​ 
-Edit the NTP daemon configuration via the command line editor "​nano"​ 
-  sudo nano /​etc/​ntp.conf 
-  ​ 
-Search for the few lines beginning with <​code>​server ...</​code>​ and add an additional new line **before** these **with the address to your local NTP server** like this 
-  server 192.168.1.123 
-  ​ 
-add another additional statement anywhere in this file 
-  # ignore panic threshold for huge time differences 
-  tinker panic 0 
-  ​ 
-The rest of the file remains unchanged. Save the file using CTRL+X and confirm the overwrite query with "​Y"​. 
-  ​ 
-Re-enable NTP client service for background operation 
-  sudo service ntp start 
- 
-Disconnect and finish by typing 
-  exit 
- 
-Shut down (see [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Manual control]]) and reboot (power-on button, [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Electronic chamber|11]] in [[reprap-industrial-v1:​Manual#​Electronic chamber|fig. 4]]) the RepRap Industrial to establish the alterations. 
-<WRAP clear> </​WRAP>​ 
- 
-==== Changing Shell Password in the BeagleBone Black Operating System ==== 
- 
-After manually creating a new Micro-SD Card from a pre-packaged upgrade release provided by //​Kühling&​Kühling//,​ the user account running the RepRapOnRails software in the Linux operating system will be in default configuration. To change the password, use SSH on your computer connected to the same LAN as your 3D printer to log in to the BeagleBone Black. You can use the hostname in the printers'​ [[reprap-industrial-v1:​manual#​Setup|Backend-URL]] as its address and log in with the following access data: 
- 
-  User: kiosk 
-  Password: kiosk 
-  ​ 
-Now you can set a new password by entering 
- 
-  passwd 
- 
-and following the instructions. In delivery condition the unique password is an eight-digit combination from the serial number at the back of the device. Take the first two four-digit blocks (example: XX-AAAA-BBBB-CCCC-YYYY becomes an "​AAAABBBB"​ password).

-===== Handling 3D files ===== 
-Any information we gather related to improving or easing the slicing process is listed in the following paragraphs.

-==== Profile display problems in Slic3r for Windows ==== 
----- 
-**This bug will be fixed with the upcoming release of SLic3r v1.2.x.** 
----- 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-It is a known problem that in Slic3r for Windows the drop-down lists for the profile selection are too narrow to display the full profile name. This can make it impossible to choose the correct profile when processing your slicing settings for creating a G-code.\\

-==== Easy evaluation of .stl-data ==== 
-Especially when using files downloaded from open internet sources it may be that these files are not suitable for printing due to export or modeling mistakes. Misaligned edges (non-manifolds) and holes can render a 3D model unprintable and make troubleshooting on the 3D printer an infinite displeasure because no obvious reason can be detected. 
- 
-One quick and simple way to eliminate this as an error source is checking the suitability of your .stl-file for 3D printing. All you need is a program capable of analyzing the .stl-file'​s mesh.\\ 
-Slic3r itself can deal with minor troubles and the [[http://​www.netfabb.com/​|netfabb company]] offers a [[http://​www.netfabb.com/​downloadcenter.php?​basic=1|free basic version]] of their //netfabb studio//, an .stl-handling tool with repair functions. Other tools may be as helpful but these two are used to explain how to recognize a corrupted file.

-<WRAP half column> 
-__Slic3r part info:__\\ (see [[http://​manual.slic3r.org/​advanced/​repairing-models|Slic3r manual]] also)\\ 
-After opening a file in Slic3r, the info box in the bottom-right corner of the plater shows information on the model status. For a single, suitable part the info must look like:\\ 
-''​Factes:​ xxxxx (1 shells)''​\\ 
-''​Manifold:​ Yes''​\\ 
- 
-If it displays ''​Manifold:​ Auto-repaired (xxxx errors)''​ the file contains degenerations.\\ It is most likely that it also shows an increased number of shells (e.g. ''​Facets:​ xxxxx (6 shells)''​ because the part has been split.\\ Also check the 3D preview for visible defects. In this case it is better to repair or reconstruct the model.\\ Regard that the auto-repair function of Sic3r is only suited for repairing minor defects. ​

-__Evaluation and repair with netfabb basic:__\\ (see [[http://​www.netfabb.com/​manuals_download.php|netfabb basic manual]] also)\\ 
-If you open a (supposedly broken) .stl in netfabb, the program will display a red warning sign in the bottom-right corner when the part is indeed faulty.\\ To see mismatches, run the part repair function by clicking on the red cross sign in the toolbar or via the //Extras// menu. The part is analyzed and all mesh information are displayed, including holes, invalid orientation etc. You can try using the auto-repair function or manually repair defects (very limited in the basic edition) to correct the part prior to newly exporting it as .stl.\\ 
-\\ 
-If simple repair does not lead to satisfactorily results, redesigning or renouncing this specific part and choosing another one may be the best choices.

-==== Overhang - adjusting the layer thickness ==== 
-If you want to print filigree objects with overhanging structures without adding supports, try reducing the layer thickness for this print by 15 - 20%. This will result in a finer Z-axis resolution and increased overlay of subsequent layers so that more stability is gained over the height of the target object. 
- 
- 
-==== Modifying infill and perimeters ==== 
-There are currently two Slic3r profiles available at our [[https://​github.com/​kuehlingkuehling/​RepRap-Industrial-Slic3r-profiles|GitHub repository]] that provide preset ready-to-print slicing settings. Her are some tips for handling these profiles to adjust them to your needs.\\ 
-The //SOLID// profile normally needs no modification since it comes with stable, reliable settings for printing solid objects with 100 % infill.\\ 
-The //ECO// profile supplies settings for objects with loosened infill. This makes objects lighter and reduces the print time and the material consumption. To achieve good results, the settings may have to be adjusted.\\ 
-We recommend to set the following always for printing ECO objects: 
-  * A hull thickness of 1.0 to 1.5 mm. As a rule of thumb divide the hull thickness by the nozzle tip diameter and set the amount of perimeters equal to the result. Such, a closed, smooth and stable hull is ensured. 
-  * Honeycomb infill as it provides highest stability at optimal density. 
-  * A minimum infill of 15 %. 
-  * A maximum infill of 30 %. Increasing the infill further does not have a significant advantage compared to a solid body but strongly increases the printing time. 
-

-===== Operation ===== 
-In the following you will find more detailed descriptions of functions of the RepRap Industrial. In most cases, these are topics upraised by support requests or in-house lab experiments. 
- 
-==== Print bed leveling ====  
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-Accurate leveling is vitally important for the print result. Although correct first layer settings can compensate for slight unevennesses of the print bed, false leveling will ruin a print within the first few layers. \\ 
-Evidence for a leveling mistake can be: 
-^  No.  ^  Appearance ​ ^  Reason ​ ^ 
-|  1  | Asymmetrical layer thickness, especially of the first layer. ​  | lopsided leveling\\ Appearance 2 and 3 are visible simultaneously | 
-|  2  | Smearing of the extrusion and possibly clogging of the nozzle. ​ | Print bed and the nozzle are too close together. | 
-|  3  | The extruded strand is laid on the print bed instead of being spread. ​ | Print bed and the nozzle are too far apart.\\ (can be due to a wrong bed temperature also – better double-check) | 
-|::: | Strands do not stick to the print bed but are being pulled away by the nozzle tip.  |:::  | 
-|  4  | Extrusion of rounded, unjoined strands. | Print bed and the nozzle are too far apart. |

-To avoid such irritations,​ make use of the following tips: 
-  * Always make sure that the build chamber is adequately and uniformly preheated to at least 90 % of the target temperature (e.g. 63 °C for ABS).\\ The Z-end stop is temperature sensitive and may cause deviating positioning when exposed to temperature variations.\\ Keep the build chamber doors as shortly open as possible during leveling to avoid too much heat loss. 
-  * If you removed the print bed, always re-insert it in the same direction and orientation it had during leveling. 
-  * Put the print bed with the convex side down onto the print table. 
-  * After adjusting all three leveling points, return the print head to the first position (tap the **[Back]** button). Check the bed - tip distance by tapping (**not** pressing) the print bed with a finger next to the nozzle tip: if you see a gap appearing at the slightest touch, the leveling point is correctly adjusted. If even the least pressure is required, the leveling is too high. Repeat this at the other two leveling points. Have a look at the adjacent videos for visual explanation. 
-  * Before waisting time on unsuccessful leveling, please rethink if the currently installed nozzle tip is adequate for the print job. Wider nozzles are more tolerant when it comes to compensating leveling mistakes and may be more suited to the task, especially when printing larger parts.

-=== Tips for easier leveling === 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-If you find it difficult to adjust the three leveling points uniformly with only the spring pressure, place a sheet of paper (not more than standard 80 g/m²) between the nozzle tip and the print bed and carefully push the bed against the tip before fastening the set screws. This way, you ensure a uniform bed - tip distance at all three leveling points.

- 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-Another way of making leveling a little bit less important is "​floating"​ your print on a raft. Slic3r (and most other slicing software) provides the "​raft"​ function, a special kind of support material, which means that before starting with the actual object a (customizable) number of loosely printed layers is printed to compensate slight leveling mistakes. If you choose the raft settings correctly, beginning with a layer as wide and thick as allowable (depending on the nozzle tip's diameter) leveling will become a much less annoying process.\\ The raft's first layer is treated as the print'​s first layer and uses the respective settings. The following layers of the raft are calculated according to the support material settings. Choose the maximal first layer height (//Slic3r -> Print Settings -> Layers and perimeters/​First layer height//) and a first layer extrusion width of 250 % (//Slic3r -> Print Settings -> Advanced/​Extrusion width -First layer//) for a compensating,​ condoning and stable raft. 
-\\ 
-The raft can either be built of the model'​s material and cut away later or, if available for the specific plastic, of support material and broken off or dissolved. Check with the [[knowledge-base#​materials|Materials'​]] section to see if a secondary support material is available. For break-away or soluble rafts the dual extrusion function of the RepRap Industrial is required. Remember to check that all necessary calibrations and settings have been made as described in the [[knowledge-base#​Dual extruder printing|Knowledgebase]].

-==== Calibrating the extrusion ==== 
-The stability and dimensional accuracy of any printed object require a correct amount of filament conveyed through the nozzle. Too little extrusion and the part will be thin-walled,​ fragile and likely to break. Too much material is likely to clog the nozzle and ruin the print. ​ 
-The amount of material effectively conveyed through the nozzle is depending on: 
-  * the 3D printer itself - slight variations are possible due to the manufacturing process; 
-  * the actual filament diameter - in the range of the dimensional stability of the filament; 
-  * the printed material'​s properties - the extruder drive wheel grinds deeper into softer materials, thus reducing the actual diameter; 
-  * the idler tension - high tension will cause the drive wheels teeth to grind deeply into the filament, causing a dilation of the material and a reduced output.\\ 
-\\ 
-To make sure that the print result is stable and accurate, an //extrusion multiplier//​ must be found for every material on every apparatus; it may be that this factor must be found for every spool of filament.\\ 
-The correct extrusion multiplier is set in the slicing software, compensating for the above named variables.\\ 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-To find the correct multiplier, open the //Setup// menu at the GUI and choose [Calibrate Extrusion].\\ \\ 
-A detailed description for ABS filament can be found [[reprap-industrial-v1:​software-version-v1.1.0-operation-and-commissioning#​extruder-calibration|here]].\\ 
-For other materials, the same procedure applies but you have to prepare a G-code for the test print.

-==== Deactivating the heating elements after end of print job ==== 
-Sometimes you may want to start a print job just before finishing time or the weekend. Since there is currently no automatic shutdown function, the 3D printer will then stay on all night respectively some days. With the following description you can alter the End G-code of your print so that the heating elements are shut off after the print job has been finished so that the power consumption is reduced significantly. A side effect is, that due to the fact that the build chamber needs some hours to channel off the heat the cooling process is slowed and thereby internal tensions of the printed object are reduced. 
-To deactivate the heating elements after a print job: 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-  - Start your slicing software. 
-  - Open the [Printer Settings] tab. 
-  - Choose the "​Custom G-code"​ menu. 
-  - In the //End G-Code// editor scroll down to the end of the text field and position the cursor in the last line above the '';​ /​END-GCODE''​ entry. 
-  - Enter the command\\ ''​M104 S0 T2''​\\ This will set the heating elements of the build chamber to a temperature of 0 °C. 
-  - Enter the command\\ ''​M140 S0''​\\ This will deactivate the print bed as the last action of the current G-code. 
-</​WRAP>​ 
-

-</​WRAP>​ 
- 
-==== Adjusting the build chamber temperature ==== 
-<WRAP note> 
-NOTICE 
- 
-//The build chamber temperature is preset to the maximal permissible temperature of +70 °C at delivery.\\ Exceeding +70 °C will damage interior components of the RepRap Industrial such as stepper motors, bearings and electronics.//​ 
-</​WRAP>​ 
- 
-<WRAP group> 
-<WRAP half column> 
-Since hitherto the RepRap Industrial is the only commercially available Open Source 3D printer with an actively heated build chamber, common slicing software does not feature ambient temperature settings. For some materials, it is advantageous to modify the chamber temperature together with the other temperature settings. 
-The build chamber'​s temperature of the RepRap Industrial is set via the "Start G-code"​ which can be manually altered. 
- 
-To change the build chamber temperature (in the following example we use our standard //Slic3r// - other  
-software may differ in denotations):​ 
-  - Open your slicing software. 
-  - Open the tab [Printer Settings]. 
-  - Choose the //Start G-code// editor in the "​Custom G-code"​ menu. 
-  -- Scroll down to\\ '';​ PREHEAT BED AND CHAMBER''​\\ and position the cursor in the line reading:\\ <​code>​ M104 S70 T2; set recirculating air heater to 70 degree celcius target temperature</​code>​ 
-  - Change the entry "​S//​xy//"​ (here //S70//) by replacing the value //xy// with the desired temperature,​ for example //50° C//:\\ <​code>​M104 S50 T2; set recirculating air heater to 50 degree celcius target temperature</​code>​ (for logical reasons, the comment should be aligned). 
-  - If you want to keep the settings, save them in a new profile (see [[http://​manual.slic3r.org/​|Slic3r manual]]). 
-Any G-code exported with this profile loaded will heat the build chamber to the stated temperature prior to printing.
