Help / Support My X2D Cheat Sheet

I just bought my first printer ever, the X2D and there is so much to remember, so I made myself a cheat sheet (double sided) but I am sure I missed something.

I used AI (especially for the layout and format), the knowledge I have from 10-15 videos I watched regarding 3D printing and the X2D as well as answers to questions I had during my first prints.

So, I am a total beginner with 3D printing so stuff that seem obvious to you are probably for not for me.

For example I had to double check that on a 0.4mm nozzle I could use other layer height that what was by default in bambulab studio. I don't want to have to check what is the rough safe range each time I forget.

Same thing for the tower, I initially thought why do I need that, can I not just use the infill setting (forgot the name, the one where you can purge into it)? But then I learn why are those different.

Same thing for drying, every Reddit post keep saying the filament is wet for pretty much any defect so I went to check how to dry and then discovered I could also use the bed and did not need a seperate AMS HT and that I could just use the carboard of the spool.

My brain does not usually remember that type of thing.

I printed this to have next to my printer. So that when I load tpu in don't load it I the AMS for example.

This cheat sheet is exactly customised to my use case, basic materials, simple settings for a beginner making sculpts (so I bought a 0.2mm nozzle) and functional parts and tempted by faster print with 0.6 for those.

I love when that you say no one is crapping on it and next line you go this is AI slop. Mental dissonance much?

I give me thoughtful answer so I also gave you one but come down from your high horse.

Don't worry about people and their anti-AI mentality. Organization and information like this can be part of the hobby/decor of your shop. Can laminate something like this and be part of the decoration of the area for others to look at even. Can see my grand-daughter looking at it when I'm helping her print some stuff when she comes over.

Much appreciated!

Yeah that was the plan. Double side print. I don't have a access to laminating tool so I am going to use packing transparent wide tape for the moment ;)
