Print Setting Library reference

The Print Setting Library stores the collections of settings that the toolpath generators of Fusion require to produce the right data for the additive manufacturing method chosen in a setup.

Manufacture > Additive > Manage > Print Setting Library

Managing print settings

On the left side, you find the library browser with default locations that can store print settings.

Tip: For Local and Cloud folders, you can create subfolders in which to sort your print setting.

Accessing print settings

In the center section, the available print settings themselves are listed. Here you create new, edit, copy and paste, import and export, and delete them, as available.

Creating print settings

You can only do this for your Local or Cloud storage. During creation, you are asked to select an existing one. The settings you select here are used as a template, and you continue working with the clone. Effectively, it is a shortcut to copying and pasting a collection of print settings in place.

Editing print settings

You may only do this for print settings stored in Local, Cloud, and Document.

Copy and paste

Copy is available wherever you have read-type access, while Paste may only be done where you have write-type access. You may copy and paste across locations, though.

Import and export

Using import and export you can share, or have shared, print settings in the form of files. Read and write restrictions apply.

Deleting

You can only delete from Local and Cloud. Once a collection of print settings has been used in a document, its copy remains with the document forever.

From Recent, you may also remove print settings so that they are no longer listed here.

Finding print settings

On the right side of the library dialog, you may use filters to narrow down the list.

Also, selecting a list item makes the Info tab available which presents a brief list of information about the selected print settings.

Note: This feature is available only when you select an additive machine with FFF, SLA, MJF, SLS, or MPBF capabilities.
