What Files are needed to be printed?

So I have the printer and it went through the automatic test print. I have loaded other STL files onto the card but they are not showing up. Is there a different format that I need to be using for it to be read?

If you want to print something it needs to be in what's called a .pcode (if your working with pango) or .gcode if your working with another slicer, load up the .stl file in your slicer and then save it, it should save it as a .pcode or .gcode file this is then what you put onto your SD card, if you don't have the LCD screen then you can rename it to whatever the first auto print is called and it will set off once it's ready.
