Some 3D models require support structures to be printed properly. UltiMaker and other FDM 3D printers work by placing layers of molten material on top of each other. A limitation of this technology is that each layer must be supported by the previous one. Although printers can handle overhangs ...
The actual base files are binary, although they contain a lot of text strings... The update to 4.5 made a LOT of changes in the base configurations, including things like changing the print layer heights. Unfortunately, a number of those changes have had severe effects on my print quality...
Removed an unwanted Z-hop when starting a new layer Layer starts are more visible in the print preview with the scarf seam Made the X to close floating and pop up windows a little bigger Improved the visuals of printers with a build plate texture, they now render more consistently regardless...
I'm running into an issue with my Ender 3 having extruder skipping. I've had extruder skipping before but only on the first layer due to leveling the bed to close to the nozzle. However I'm getting this issue later on in the print. A good few layers late
Obviously, you don’t want to print plastic trinkets completely solid – only the outside surface matters, and a part with 100% infill is just a waste of plastic. Different slicers have come up with different ways of filling the inside of a print, usually with a grid of squares, ...

Where the print head should be at any given second How much material to extrude in each layer And many more settings that can be tweaked Basically, everything that makes your printer useful is told to it by the slicer, so it's the most important piece of software you can own. ...

I've set up my printer to activate a camera remote control after each print layer. The problem this leaves is a long string of filament trailing from the camera trigger point to the resumed printing. To get around messing up my print with these strings,
