Setup
1. Raspakivanje i komponente
Carefully unpack all components from the box. Verify that all items are present:
- Easythreed Nano Plus 3D Printer
- Filament spool (typically 250g PLA)
- Adapter za struju
- USB kabl
- Micro SD card and adapter
- Odvijač
- Spatula/scraper tool
- Filament spool holder brackets (2)

2. Montaža
The Easythreed Nano Plus comes largely pre-assembled. The primary assembly required is attaching the two brackets for the PLA material tray (filament spool holder).
- Locate the two filament spool holder brackets.
- Attach them securely to the designated slots on the printer.
- Place the filament spool onto the assembled holder.
3. Initial Power On and Software
- Connect the power adapter to the printer and a power outlet.
- Insert the provided Micro SD card into the printer's SD card slot. Ensure contacts are facing up. The slot is located at the back of the machine.
- It is recommended to copy the software from the SD card to your computer before first use. The SD card contains the necessary slicing software and electronic instructions.

4. Niveliranje kreveta
Accurate bed leveling is crucial for successful prints. Refer to the electronic instructions on the SD card for detailed steps. A general guideline is:
- Use a piece of paper to set the initial height between the nozzle and the print bed. The paper should have slight resistance when pulled.
- After setting the height with paper, slightly back off the leveling screws (approximately 1/8th to 1/4th of a turn) to raise the bed slightly. This ensures the first layer adheres well, preventing "PLA spaghetti" due to insufficient adhesion. Experiment to find the optimal setting for your printer.
Operacija
1. One-Key Printing
The Easythreed Nano Plus features a simplified one-key printing function, making it very user-friendly.
- Ensure the printer is powered on and the bed is leveled.
- Load the PLA filament into the printer.
- Insert the SD card containing your desired print model (G-code file).
- Press the "Print" button (often indicated by a play symbol) on the printer's control panel. The printer will automatically begin the printing process.

2. Slicing Software Usage
For more control over your prints, use the Easythreed slicing software provided on the SD card. This software allows you to prepare 3D models for printing.
- Shell Thickness: This setting controls the number of perimeters. Use multiples of 0.2mm, as the nozzle is 0.4mm.
- Fill Density: Adjust the infill percentage. Lower density reduces print time and filament usage but results in weaker models. 100% is solid.
- Support Distance X/Y: If supports are needed, adjust this distance. A value of 1.2mm or more is often recommended to make supports easier to remove.
- Temperatura mlaznice: The default temperature works for the included filament. Other filaments may require adjustments. If prints show poor adhesion or are stringy, adjust the temperature.
- Orijentacija: Experiment with model orientation (e.g., printing upside down) to optimize filament usage and print quality.
3. Filament Handling
The printer uses external consumables, allowing easy observation of the remaining filament. When changing filament, you may need to pull firmly on the old filament to remove it. Ensure you brace the print head during this process to prevent damage.
Održavanje
1. Cleaning the Print Bed
The independent and detachable hot bed printing platform is convenient for cleaning. Over time, the print bed material can become clogged, affecting print adhesion and quality. Regular cleaning is essential.
- Remove the magnetic print bed from the printer.
- Use a suitable cleaning agent (e.g., isopropyl alcohol) and a soft cloth to clean any residue.
- For stubborn residue, a razor blade scraper can be used carefully to remove material without damaging the bed.
- The bed material is replaceable if it becomes too worn or damaged.

2. Nozzle Maintenance
Nozzle clogging can occur. If the nozzle becomes clogged, cleaning or replacement may be necessary. Replacement extruder units are available, though sourcing may require direct contact with the manufacturer.
Rješavanje problema
| Problem | Mogući uzrok | Rješenje |
|---|---|---|
| Filament not sticking to bed (PLA spaghetti) | Improper bed leveling, dirty print bed, incorrect nozzle temperature. | Re-level the print bed, ensuring slight "smoosh" on the first layer. Clean the print bed thoroughly. Adjust nozzle temperature if necessary. |
| Stringing between printed parts | Incorrect retraction settings, nozzle temperature too high. | Adjust retraction settings in slicing software. Consider lowering nozzle temperature slightly. An additional layer cooler fan may help. |
| Mlaznica je začepljena | Filament debris, heat creep. | Attempt to clear the clog by heating the nozzle and manually pushing filament through. If persistent, the nozzle or extruder unit may need replacement. |
| Prints are weak or hollow | Low infill density. | Increase the "Fill Density" setting in your slicing software. |
| Štampač je bučan | Normal operation noise, especially during fast movements. | The Easythreed Nano Plus is designed for low noise (<55dB), but some operational noise is expected. Consider placing it in a less frequented area if noise is a concern during long prints. |
