Hooking It Up

Printer I/O:

Top — input (templates, discs)Bottom — output (prints, ejected discs)Sides — filament spools only

Hoppers work from Tier 1, and any pipe mod that respects inventory faces works too.

RF cables connect on any face. Spools dock on the sides — Shift+Right Click the printer with a spool in hand, or Shift+Click it into the spool docks in the GUI.

Docked spools render on the machine and visibly shrink as filament depletes. The Filament Converter can keep them topped up automatically.

No RF mod installed? The Simple Generator burns furnace fuel into a trickle of RF (right-click or hopper it fuel), so MC3DPrint works standalone. For serious throughput, bring your own power.

Loading a disc arms the printer (Ready). Press Start in the GUI or pulse redstone to begin — or flip Auto on to start the moment a disc lands.

Use the X / Y / Z offsets in the GUI to move the build area; the default is centered directly above the printer. See the FAQ if a print won't begin.
