Studio Help.

maximum dimensions:

To prepare the Objet30 printer for producing models:
1. Make sure that the build tray in the Objet30 printer is empty and clean.
If not, remove old material with the scraper, and clean the tray
thoroughly with cleaning fluid.
2. Make sure that there is sufficient model and support material loaded
in the printer, as indicated in the Objet30 printer interface (see
figure 7‐3). You may want to replace the cartridges of model and
support material currently loaded in the printer to avoid the need for
replacing them during printing.
3. At the bottom of the Objet30 printer interface, click the red button to
switch the printer to online mode.
The color of the button changes from red to green (see figure 7‐7). If
there is a job in the Job Manager queue, it is sent to the printer.
Before beginning to produce models, it is recommended that you check the
current printing quality of the print heads by performing a pattern test (see
CAUTION: Use protective gloves when cleaning the build tray, and be
careful of the sharp edges of the scraper blade.
