About

This is a Creality Ender 3 S1. It has a 220mm x 220mm x 250mm print volume. This machine was set aside to allow advanced users to tinker with more filaments. It is encouraged that users slice on their own computers if possible to avoid cluttering Cura in the 3D printing lab.

Basic Instructions
