Getting Started
How do I install the MakerBot LABS Experimental Extruder?
-
Please make sure your METHOD is running the latest firmware.
-
Take out the extruder that you currently have in extruder slot 1 and insert the LABS extruder instead.
-
Your METHOD will ask you to calibrate the extruders. Please make sure both extruder nozzles are 100% clean to ensure accurate calibration.
