https://www.flashforge.com/download-center.
Find the FlashPrint 5 software package on the USB flash drive and install the
•
version that matches your system.
After installing the slicing software, import the model file by clicking [File] and [Load File]
or by pressing CTRL+O. Select the corresponding printer type. Click [Start Slicing]. After
slicing is completed, save the file to a USB flash drive for printing.
Note: The slicing profiles available in FlashPrint 5 are configured based on extensive
testing with various types of filaments. We recommend using the recommended
temperature settings provided in the profiles. If you believe a specific filament requires a
different temperature, you can make minor adjustments and print smaller objects at the
set temperature for testing to ensure smooth operation.
