About Using a Stratasys or 3D Systems 3D Printer
When you print your model using a Stratasys or 3D Systems 3D printer, you have appearance options and build calculation options. You can perform build calculations based on the available materials in the 3D printer. If you already applied colors, you can automatically match them to the colors available in the 3D printer, or manually assign other colors.
If you connect to a 3D printer through a Materialise build processor, you can generate support structures.
When you print to a 3D printer, you can do following:
Apply colors to the models you print, based on the available colors in the connected 3D printer.
Set the surface finish. You can apply glossy surface finish or matte surface finish.
Set the quality of the printing. You can select High Quality to print every layer, High Speed to print two layers at a time, or Digital Materials to use more than a single material.
View the required amount of build material.
Control the STL quality.
Clip the model to see its interior.
Show or hide the visual representation of the support material.
Set the draft angle of the support material.
Print the model.
