install filament

 


Place filament  on the spool holder

The filament spool holder is located on the back side of the printer.

Note: The da Vinci nano/da Vinci nano w comes with a pre-assembled filament spool. The white spool ring has a sensor chip that tracks the amount of filament left to print with. When you purchase new filament you will need to load the new sensor chip here.

NOTE:

• The filament will load better when the tip of the filament is cut at a 45° angle.
• When the printer is not in use, raise the filament spool.
• If the room temperature is below 25℃/ 77°F, apply some glue to the bed tape for better part adhesion.
