QIDI TECH Q1 Pro Innovative 3D Printing Machine

Usage Notice

• Do not place the machine in flammable and explosive materials or near high heat sources, please place the machine in a ventilated, cool, and dust-free environment.
• Ensure the machine is powered off (unplug the power cord) before performing maintenance or modifications.
• Before connecting the power, please follow the power setup instructions to ensure that the voltage is correct.
• Never reach inside the QIDI printer while they are in operation.
• Children should be under constant supervision when using QIDI products.
• The printer contains high-speed moving parts, so be careful of hand pinching.
• There is a potential risk of burns: the print head of the QIDI printers can reach temperatures above 300 ° C, while the hot bed can reach temperatures above 100 ° C. Do not touch either of these parts with your bare hands.
• Do not place the printer in a vibrating or other unstable environment. Otherwise, the shaking of the machine will affect the printing quality.
• After printing, use the residual temperature of the print head to clean the filament around the nozzle with the dedicated tools in time. Do not touch either of these parts with your bare hands.
• Perform routine maintenance for your product by using a dry cloth to clean the printer body when it is turned off. Additionally, remove any dust, bonded printing materials, or foreign objects that may accumulate on the optical axis. Regular lubrication is necessary for the linear shaft and Z-axis screws.
• If the machine is in standby mode for a long time, please unplug the power of it.
• If the machine has not been used for a long time, please pay attention to protecting the printer from dust and damp.
• There are manuals, slicer software, and other related information on the USB flash drive. (The information in the USB flash drive may not be the latest. You can obtain the latest information by contacting the After-sales Service marked at the end.)
• Modifying system files and installing unofficial plugins means that the customer is waiving their expectations of official support. They will be solely responsible for the security and safety of their printer. Any firmware issues arising from these modifications will not be covered under warranty. If you need to recover the factory system files, customers need to purchase the EM MC-Adapter additionally.

Accessory List

Starting Up

• Remove the upper foam and take out the printer.
• Remove the power cord from the top cover foam and connect it to the printer. Switch on the printer and proceed with the on-screen instructions to complete the unpacking and loading of the filament.

Language

• Please select your preferred language and click on the next step.

Unboxing

• Follow the on-screen instructions to remove the ties fastening the extruder and X-axis, discard the cardboard, and proceed to the next step.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to remove the four screws securing the printing platform in place.
• Click Next. Make sure the print bed is unlocked and clear of any debris before proceeding.

Load Filament

• Take out the corresponding accessories from the top cover foam and install them according to the sticker instructions on the back of the machine.
• Install the filament extension bracket onto the extension bracket fixing block.
• You can refer to the sticker tips on the back of the machine to install the filament holder on the filament extension rack.
• Place the filament on the filament holder and click Next.
• Note: It is recommended to install the filament holder cover on the holder to avoid loss.
• According to the on-screen prompts, insert the filament from the filament duct to the nozzle.
• Make sure the filament enters the nozzle, then click Next.
• Press the heat button to enter the print temperature of the filament. Allow the temperature to reach the preset value and then proceed to the next step.
• Click the downwards button and allow the filament to extrude from the nozzle.
• Notice: If no filament is extruding on multiple attempts, please check that the filament is entering the print head correctly.
• Click Next and finish the start guide.
• Note: Before printing for the first time, please perform Auto Bed Leveling and Input Shaping.

First Printing

• Please perform automatic bed leveling and input shaping before the first print to make the printing better.
• Note: Please do not use the platform calibration function before consulting with after-sales support or logging into the official Wiki to learn how to use it.
• Click the button to start printing.
• Note: Built-in models use PLA Rapido filament by default.
• When printing filaments such as PLA/ TPU, it is recommended to open the top cover and front door of the printer to prevent the machine chamber temperature from being too high, causing the filaments to soften and clog the nozzle.
• After turning on the chamber heating, please close the printer cover and front door to keep the chamber airtight.

How To Remove

How To Remove The Print Head Front Cover

There is a buckle structure on the top of the front cover of the nozzle, please do not take it out directly. Please lift it from the bottom upward and remove the front cover of the nozzle.

Removing The Scrap Box For The First Time

For transportation safety, clear tape is used around the waste box. When removing it for the first time, please remove the transparent tape first, then lift up the waste box and take it out.

Printer Introduction

Filament Guide For Beginners

TIPS

1. Some other brands of ABS filaments are less heat resistant and it is recommended to set the chamber temperature to no more than 55 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the filaments may be soften in advance and cause clogging.
2. If the filaments do not stick to the print platform:
3. Please check if the nozzle is far away from the print plate, you can adjust the platform upward with the Zoffset adjusting function.
4. Because of the different ambient temperatures in different regions, the temperature of the heat bed can be increased appropriately to increase the adhesion of the filaments.
5. If above all can not work, please contact the after-sales service for assistance.
