Hi,

Just purchased a Monoprice mini 3D and I have some questions:

1. Can I use any filament?

2. What is the differance in the 1.75 and 3 (besides the obvious)?

3. What are the differences in the materials used?

Any other tips are much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi @IzzyB,

Here you can find out more about the specification of your printer: Products no longer Available

1) You can use ABS, PLA and other different filament supported by an SLA printer.
2) You can ONLY use 1.75 mm filament

3) Here you can find some differences between PLA and ABS: Talk Manufacturing | Hubs

Let me know if you have any question!

Thanks!

I just got my printer too but it only seems to work with filament for a 7Tech 3d pen,but it comes out too fast and will not stick to the print bed. It was printing out nice with this same filament this afternoon but the it suddenly was not sticking and I had to stop it.:frowning: I have a big roll of Monoprice ABS 1.75 mm filament but the printer will not work with it. This is really frustrating,I want to print!:frowning:

Please help. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
