Greetings,

I just received a new QIDI X-Smart 3D printer and had a few questions. Thank you in advance for helping.

  1. Can you print wireless from a computer? If so, what is the process? Or is it simply easier to plug in a USB cable and print directly from the computer?
  2. Is the slicer software that comes with the printer a good one to use or is another one better?
  3. Any general tips or things you’ve encountered that would be helpful?

Thanks again!!! :slight_smile:

I cannot seem to get the printer to recognize the computer (or something like that). I successfully connected the printer to my wifi, however, after I slice a model, there is no printer showing up on the list of where to send it. Hope that makes sense. Both the printer and the computer are on the same network.

Please see attached photo. My apologies for the graininess.

UPDATE #2:

I tried plugging in the USB stick that came with the printer and saved the file directly to it.

Then, the printer name appeared under the “Device Name.”

However, when I tried to send it directly to the printer, that error message at the bottom also showed up.

ARGHHHH!!! Sooooo frustrating. :frowning:

I’m sure the solution is simple and I just don’t know how to properly work the software yet. But if anyone could help me out, I truly appreciate it!

Thanks again!!!
