Reprogramming a resin tank (Form Studio 1)
Reprogramming a resin tank (Form Studio 1)
There may be circumstances where you need to reprogram a Form Studio 1 resin tank so it can be used with a different resin type. For example, you may have started a print with a new resin tank but inserted the wrong resin cartridge. In this case, you can use the printer’s touchscreen to reprogram the resin tank to accept a new resin type.
Cleaning the resin tank
If the resin tank already contains resin, you must remove the existing resin and clean it out before reprogramming it.
- Inspect the tank to ensure that it is free of debris.
- Pour the resin from the resin tank into an opaque, resin-safe container.
- Wipe any remaining resin from the resin tank using a soft sided tool, squeegee, or scraper.
Notice:
- Do not pour resin from the resin tank back into the corresponding resin cartridge. Doing so may contaminate the resin in the resin cartridge.
- Take extreme care not to damage the tank film when cleaning the tank. Using a sharp tool can scratch, puncture, or deform the film. Damaged tanks may impact print quality or cause resin spills.
- Close the resin container and store the resin for later use.
- Clean any remaining liquid resin from the tank film and tank frame.
Reprogramming the resin tank
After thoroughly cleaning your resin tank, insert the tank into the printer to begin the process of reprogramming.
Notice:
Ensure that the resin tank is clean and free of resin before reprogramming. Mixing resin types in a resin tank can damage the tank or have an adverse effect on prints.
- Insert the cleaned resin tank into the printer.
- Upload a print job to the printer that requires the resin type you want to assign to the resin tank.
- Insert a resin cartridge that matches the print job.
- Start the print. The printer displays Error 8.6.10: Incorrect tank inserted.
- Tap Ignore. A confirmation screen appears.
- Confirm that you want to reprogram the resin tank. The resin tank is reprogrammed to match the print job.
