1 Summary
1.1 How to use the User Manual
This User Manual is set out to explain the following; Product Introduction, Preparation, How to Use the
Printer, Software Operation & Help, 3Dker Platform, Maintenance and FAQ. Please read the manual carefully
before use and follow instructions when using the Einstart-C.
1.2 Attention
Please consider the following information before using the printer.
1.2.1 Safety
The printer is only compatible with the power supply offered by Hangzhou Shining 3D Tech Co., Ltd.
Using an alternative power supply may lead to safety risks and/or damage to the printer
The print head reaches temperatures of over 200°C. To minimize potential risk, keep the printer door
closed during operation of the printer. It is also advisable to keep the printer door closed to reduce any outside
airflow, which can affect print quality.
DO NOT touch the model, print nozzle, print bed and any other part inside the printer until fully cooled to
room temperature. Care must be taken during the removal of 3D printed parts.
Although considered safe, the printer sends out small concentrations of vapor during printing therefore
good ventilation is recommended.
1.2.2 Protection
Keep the printer away from water as this may damage the printer.
DO NOT cut off power supply or unplug the USB cable during printing as it may cause print failure.
The printer operates at a room temperature of 5℃to 30 ℃. Print quality may be affected if the
temperature is not in this range.
Shining 3D has no responsibility for any damage caused to the printer through using print material or a
power supply not offered by Shining 3D.

2 Product Introduction
The Einstart®-C 3D printer is easy to operate and maintain. Its basic principle is that, upon digital input,
plastic is heated, melted and deposited to form the desired 3D model. The design is built up layer upon layer
with each successful layer turning solid to give a finished printed model that is sturdy and durable.
2.1 Product Appearance
Einstart®-C
2.2 Device parameters and accessories
See Appendix.
2.3 Sound illustration
The printer uses sound effects to give the user an indication of processes that are occurring e.g. Printer
start-up, filament loading etc.

3 Preparation
3.1 Hardware Installation
3.1.1 Remove the package
Unpack the inner and outer packaging and remove the cushioning foam. Use this manual and technical
drawings above to learn about accessories and set-up.
3.1.2 Print bed installation
Remove the print bed, open the printer door and fit it to the platform holder. Allow the magnet and
positioning block to cooperate and align with one another.
3.1.3 Install the Bowden Tube
Locate the transparent Bowden tube inside the printer and feed it through the central hole at the back of
the printer. Then insert it in to the extruder through the blue quick connector. The Bowden tube is easily
removed by pressing down on the quick connector and pulling the tube out.
3.1.4 Power Supply Connection
Start by connecting the adaptor to the cable plug. Once completed, insert the cable plug in to the mains
socket and connect the adaptor to the jack in the back right of the printer.
3.1.5 Turn On the Printer
Once the power supply is connected, press the switch on the right side of the printer to turn on. The LCD
screen display will indicate that the printer is turned on.
3.1.6 Filament Load
Remove the filament packaging and cut the end of the filament at an angle with pliers or scissors to create
a pointed tip. Place the filament reel on the filament holder located inside the printer on the right hand side.
Then feed the filament through the hole inside the printer and into the Bowden tube until it reaches the extruder.
Please refer to charter 5.4(11, 24, 25) for detailed operation.
Note: For better adhesion of the 3D print to the bed, we recommend a layer of masking tape or glue
stick on the print bed prior to print.
