* Connection Troubleshooting
** Connection error: The serial port named '/dev/tty.usbmodem1411' could not be found.
*** It may not be turned on and plugged in.
* Printing Troubleshooting
** It stops printing midway through.
*** Are you browsing the Internet memes with Replicator in the background? It can't print very far in the background. Alt-tab/command-tab to bring ReplicatorG to foreground every time it stops and it will resume. This is one of the main reasons to start using the SD card to print: You can use your computer for other things without slowing down or stopping prints.
 
=== Printing from an SD card ===
# Put files ending in .gcode on an SD card
# Insert SD card into the side-facing slot on the front right side of the case.
# Press DOWN ARROW till you reach Print from SD card
# Press CENTER SELECT
 
 
=== Printing from the [[Threed]] printstation PC ===
A [[Threed]] printer computer station is connected to the printer.
 
=== Filaments ===
There are many colors of filament spools to use for printing projects. Take note of which plastic type your filament is and choose settings appropriately.
* Note: Replicator defaults are 220 degrees C.
 
==== ABS Plastic ====
* Feedrate: 80
* Travel feedrate: 80
* Temperature: 230 degrees C
* Print on yellow kapton tape
* Smells like cancer
 
==== PLA Plastic ====
* Feedrate: 80
* Travel feedrate: 100
* Temperature: 180 degrees C
* Print on blue painter's tape
* Smells like Canadian maple syrup
 
The wrong plastic can damage the printer and make your prints look look like drek.

There is an outdated [[3DPrintBeginners]] guide page that could be a source of good material for this updated new page.
