Product Information

The 3D Printing Pen is a versatile tool that allows you to create three- dimensional objects by extruding heated filament. It comes with various features and controls to enhance your user experience.

Features and Controls

1. Temperature Adjustment: The pen allows you to adjust the temperature based on your filament type and desired results.
2. Feed Button: Pressing the feed button initiates the filament loading process and controls the extrusion of the filament.
3. Speed Control: The speed control slider adjusts the rate at which the filament is extruded.
4. Nozzle: The nozzle is responsible for heating and shaping the filament during the drawing process. Product Usage Instructions

Initial Setup

1. Connect the AC Adapter or USB Power Cable to a power outlet and insert the plug into the power socket. Note that the pen can also be used with compatible power banks for portability.
2. If desired, adjust the temperature using the temperature adjustment feature. Wait for the pen to heat up to the set temperature.
3. Straighten the end of the filament (if necessary) and insert it into the filament loading hole until it stops.
4. Press and hold the feed button (or double-click it) to load the filament into the pen. Increase the speed control slider to expedite the loading process.
5. Place the pen on a flat surface and ensure you have a suitable work surface (e.g., polycarbonate or glass with a thin layer of washable gluestick).

Drawing and Continuous Feed

• Start your drawing on the prepared work surface.
• For continuous feed, double-click the feed button. This allows the filament to continuously extrude as you draw.
• To exit continuous feed mode, press the load or withdraw button once.

Changing Colors

1. Bring the 3D Pen up to temperature.
2. Press and hold the withdraw button until the filament is free from the pen.
3. Cut the new filament to the appropriate length and load it into the pen.

Nozzle Maintenance

It is important to maintain the cleanliness of the nozzle for optimal performance. Follow these steps:

1. Ensure the pen is cooled down and unplugged from power.
2. Use the provided plastic screwdriver to remove the service door.
3. Inspect the nozzle for any clogs or debris.
4. If necessary, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the nozzle for thorough cleaning.
5. Reassemble the pen by attaching the nozzle and securing the service door.

WARNING
BURN HAZARD. The ceramic nozzle of this device can become extremely hot. DO NOT touch the tip or any melted plastic or you may be severely burned. DO NOT allow the tip near or in contact with flammable materials. Inform others in the area that the unit is hot and should be handled with care. Allow the tip to cool completely after use and before storing. The hot tip may cause damage to painted surfaces, plastics, and cloth if left in contact with these materials. Only use 1.75mm ABS and PLA filament.

ADULT USE ONLY. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

WARNING: DO NOT use this appliance near bathtubs, showers, basins, or other vessels containing water.
This marking indicates that this product should not be disposed of with other household wastes. To prevent possible harm to the environment or human health from uncontrolled waste disposal, recycle it responsibly to promote sustainable reuse of material resources.

WARNING: This 3D Pen – when used with a styrene filament (ABS / HIPS / or PC-ABS) – can expose you and others in the same room to styrene, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer. www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
ALWAYS OPERATE THIS PRODUCT IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA.

Features and Controls of your 3D Printing Pen

Operation Instructions

1. Connect the AC Adapter and USB Power Cable to a power outlet. Insert the plug into the power socket. Note: This 3D pen can be used with power banks that output at least 2 amps. This way you are not tethered to a wall outlet.

2. Adjust temperature (if desired) press the feed button and release. Keep an eye on the temperature display and wait for the pen to heat to temperature.
   ABS 210°C
   PLA 175°C

3. Straighten the end of the filament if necessary and insert it into the filament loading hole until it stops. Press and hold, or double click the feed button to load filament into the pen. Sliding the speed control all the way up will make this process faster.

4. Start your drawing on a flat surface. Polycarbonate, or glass with a thin layer of washable gluestick makes for an optimal work surface, but you can use anything that is heat safe and your filament adheres to.
   Double-click the feed button for continuous feed. Pressing the load or withdraw button once will exit continuous feed mode.

Changing Colors

1. Bring your 3D Pen up to temperature.
2. Press and hold the withdraw button until the filament is free.
3. Ensure the new filament is cut correctly and load into the pen.

Nozzle Maintenance

• If you believe your nozzle is clogged, back out the filament and cut a new end. Then open the service door and remove the nozzle to check if there is a piece that can be removed. If it’s still clogged, try raising the temperature to melt the clog. However, if you find you are unable to remove the filament, please note the nozzle is modular and easily replaced. Replacement nozzles are available at mynt3d.com.
• To check for a jam or replace the nozzle, start by prying open the service door with a thin, flat tool. Use an eyeglasses-size Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw holding in the nozzle. Slide out the nozzle, wiggling carefully if you encounter resistance.

Quick Tips

• View our initial setup walkthrough video at: www.mynt3d.com/pages/tips
• Use lower temperatures than filament manufacturers suggest for 3D printers:
  • ABS: >190 C
  • PLA: <190 C
• If the feed motor begins to struggle stop operation and back out the filament. Try cutting a new end before continuing. If the motor continues to struggle there may be a piece of broken filament stuck inside. See the Nozzle Maintenance section for further instructions.

Filament Tips and Notes

• When changing from PLA to ABS filament, the nozzle may emit a small amount of smoke from the increased temperature. PLA is plant-based and does not release any toxic fumes when overheated.
• Depending on the filament being used, plastic may continue to extrude slightly after the feed button is released. This effect is often more pronounced with PLA, and is a symptom of commercial 3D printers as well. Decreasing the temperature slightly can help.
• It is advised to only use the withdraw button when changing filament. If the filament is only partially withdrawn it can deform in the barrel and the pen will not extrude. If this happens you should fully withdraw the filament and cut off the deformed section.
• Filament quality varies greatly, and even reputable brands can release bad batches. If your 3D pen is behaving abnormally, a good first step is to try another roll of filament. Also, ABS and PLA filaments are damaged by excess humidity. It is good practice to store your filament in a sealed and dry location.
