How to Prepare Models for 3D Printing?

The next step is to bring it into the physical world through 3D printing. Here’s how you can prepare your model for 3D printing, using the BambuLab P1S as an example:

Step 5: Import the 3D model into BambuStudio. This powerful software is designed to optimize your model for 3D printing.

Step 6: Use BambuStudio to create auto supports. These supports are essential for ensuring that complex parts of your model print correctly. You can also adjust the filament settings to match your printer and material preferences.

Step 7: Finally, click the "Slice Plate" button to slice your model into printable layers and send the print job to your 3D printer.
