Multi-Color 3D Printer

This introductory equipment training covers the fundamentals of using our multi-color 3D printer to produce parts with multiple colors and materials in a single print. Participants will learn when multi-color printing is the right tool, how it differs from standard single-color FDM printing, and the basic workflow for preparing and running a successful multi-color print.

Topics include:

• What multi-color 3D printing is and common use cases
• Differences between single-color and multi-color print workflows
• Supported materials and color combinations
• Basic slicer setup for multi-color prints
• Managing color changes and transitions
• Starting, monitoring, and finishing a multi-color print
• Cleanup and care expectations for shared equipment

Completion of FDM 3D Printing Equipment Training (Intro) is required before using the multi-color printer independently during makerspace access hours.

No prior multi-color printing experience is required. This session is designed for members who already have a basic understanding of FDM 3D printing and want to expand their capabilities.
