- Do not place the printer in a vibrating or unstable environment. The shaking of the machine may cause a print quality issue
- Please use the power adapter we provide to connect the printer to a nationally accredited two-hole power outlet, don’t use other adapters to connect the printer. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the printer to rain or moisture
- Do not wear woven gloves while operating the printer as they could be rolled in via the movable parts, which could result in bodily body injuries
- Keep any part of your body off the moving nozzle and the printing platform, while the printer is operating
- the models printed out by the printer are not edible,
- Do not loosen any screws of the machine to prevent electrical shock
- To guarantee the printing quality and standard service life of the printer, please use the filament we recommend
- Maintain the printer on a regular time basis, switch off the printer to clean the shell with a piece of dry cloth, clear up filament slag in the printing chamber with a tweezer and check whether there are some foreign objects on the belt
- To avoid injuries, it is forbidden for children aged 0or less to operate alone
- Users should strictly comply with the relevant local laws and regulations of any residing region or country, observe professional ethics and ensure safety while using this product. Otherwise, they should bear corresponding legal liability

Printer Start-up
- After turning on the Power switch, there will be a beep sound and the indicating light in white color will start to flash (to ensure better print quality, please place the printer in a flat and stable place).
- Wait for the printer to perform its power-on self-test procedure. This may take about 30 to 60 seconds. Then, the white indicating light will stop flashing, and the printer is ready for use. Tips:
You can download the printer control KOKONI App during the power-on self-test of the printer.

WiFi Network Configuration
Attention:
- For some phone models, it would take some time to search for a hotspot, please wait/refresh or just turn off the WiFi function and restart it.
- The following functions have to be turned off for some phone models: WiFi Security Inspection, WLAN+, Network Intelligent Selection, connect to the Best WLAN Network, and Automatically Switch to the Cellular Network.
If you encounter problems in WiFi network configuration, please check the following diagnosis procedure:
- Confirm the WiFi account and password, and make sure the WiFi entered is the current environment WiFi instead of the KOKONl3D hotspot.
- Ensure that the network environment is good. If the problem still exists, change to another network. 5G WiFi is not compatible. For the WiFi network configuration instructions designed for smartphones of various models, please refer to the Operation Guidance of the App.
Quick Print
Attention:
- After printing starts, the printer usually takes about 2 minutes to heat up. Please wait patiently.
- Under no circumstances should you touch any moving parts as injuries could be inflicted. Be aware of the hot nozzle. If anything goes wrong in the printing process, click Cancel to terminate printing or just unplug the power adapter. In such a case, try not to make contact with either the nozzle or the printing bed.
3D Avatar Modeling
Attention:
- 3D Avatar modeling requirements: (l)Support selfie capturing or uploading photos via a smartphone; (2)When taking photos, light up the person sufficiently and make the person’s face towards the camera without being blocked; (3)Don’t put on hats when taking photos; (4)Do not take profile selfies; (5)Upload high-definition photos; (6)Do not upload a photo of more than one person.
Please be noted that this function is only suitable for modeling living human beings’ faces.
- If you are prompted with “no face”, please change to a brighter shooting environment, remove your glasses, and take an unobstructed photo of your face.
- If you are prompted with “Image format is not standard”, please try to take pictures with your camera, and do not upload motion pictures such as GIFs.
Object Modeling
Attention:
- Object modeling is based upon precise 3-dimensional measurement of 20-300 images taken around the object with each movement of the viewing angle less than 30 degrees and one overlaying another by more than 60%.
- The system will automatically verify whether the uploaded photos are qualified or not. At least 20 qualified photos are needed for modeling.
As reconstructed via a computer algorithm, the modeling process takes about half an hour in the background, and you can exit this page during the course of modeling. When finished, a message will pop up to notify you if the function of “Push Notification” is activated. You can then check the model in “My Models”.

FAQ
Q: How to make the surface of a model more smooth?****
A: To make a model look shiny and feel smooth, you need to use sandpaper or other tools to polish it. You can also select “High” in the precision set to make better surface finishing. If the condition is intolerable and difficult to fix, contact the Customer Service Department
Q: Is the printer compatible with other filaments?****
A Not yet, please use KOKONI modified PLA filament
Q: How to change the filament?****
A: Launch the KOKON App and go through “My Printer” and “Replace Filament” to change it. More detailed instructions are shown on pages 11-12of the manual. Change the filament without KOKONI App could cause print quality issues or even damage the printer itself
Q: Why doesn’t the model stick onto the base plate?****
A: When the first layer of a model doesn’t stick to the base plate, apply a layer of glue to the base plate and do printing at room temperature ranging from 20C to 25C as a proper temperature could prevent the base plate from bending over. Model warping is a normal phenomenon caused by the physical properties of the plastic itself, so printing in a warm environment can help to alleviate bottom warping
Q: How many models can a reel of the filament make?****
A: The reel of the filament is 70m, and the number of models it could make depends on the size of the models. Models of large size may need more filament. A more complicated model may consume more filament, too. On average, a real filament may print out about 20 simple models
Q: Is it possible to resume the last printing task following a power failure?****
A: Negative, once the power is out, the printing process ends.
Q: The connected printer becomes offline****
A: Reboot the printer and KOKONI App. If the printer still remains offline, delete it and reconnect the printer for network configuration.
