Printing requests are only available to MECE students and students enrolled in MECE courses. You can submit a 3D print request via email using the above guidelines. Students are not allowed to start their own prints in our lab - this is to ensure our 3D printers stay up and running in order to meet the 3D printing demand of all students. A trained printing operator will run your prints and let you know when your parts are ready for pickup.

Prints can be picked up in the small side room next to the staff office. If your part is done printing and sitting on a print bed, please see a staff member to remove it from a printer for you. Printers are only to be handled by trained operators.

Generally, our Prusa printers are well suited for most print requests. However, if a print is particularly large and/or needs to be made from ABS, it should be run on the Stratasys.

In order to keep up with the demand of prints, we have standardized the color of the printer filament we use. Your print will be printed with black and/or grey PLA depending on filament availability. Please speak to lab staff if a special filament color is specifically required.
