To get printing right away, the default LulzBot TAZ print profiles listed below can be imported into Cura LulzBot Edition for ready-to-print settings. Note that this will cause an inaccuracy for the print time, but will serve as a good start.
Note that these slicing parameter files are for the TAZ, the slicing parameters can be applied to the mini.
download here and use their released profiles (from this location) to slice your print using the material to print the object in. Note that there are also community solutions (cheaper than commercial printer services) available where you select the most nearby printer and let somebody else print it for you.Īs an alternative (to try at home), if you navigate to the LulzBot website you can find a specific release for the LulzBot printers e.g. Going to the library twice might work out as you have one day to tweak the print to get it done in 4 hours, the other day to print the file generated the day earlier. So if you have access to the printer, your most accurate estimation would be using the software from the manufacturer or correctly setup third party software. The most accurate estimation is obtained with specific settings for the printer. It is already established that is is possible to calculate the estimated print duration by this anwer. As an example: the time it takes to heat the bed and the hot end is never included in the time estimate the slicer gives. However, that estimate could be incorrect. They may also show the print time on the UI during slicing.Īlternatively: Email the stl to the staff at the library, and them to generate an estimate for you. There are quite a few slicers that will output the print time into the text of the g-code. Import your stl into the sofware and "slice it" There will usually be a large button that is used to generate the g-code. Rate, layer height, and infill settings will affect the print time. Get access to the same slicing software, and obtain a copy of If you manage to do that, then the slicer software will give you an estimate. The only way to compute that is to know what settings their slicer is using and then slice your stl the way they will and this is assuming that you have the same slicer software. The print time is based on the number of instructions in the g-code file plus the time it takes to move the effector (the hot end) around the build area. There is no way to estimate the print time of an STL file directly.
