Airflow
Allow passive airflow around the DittoPro-R 3D Printer.
Avoid obstructing the cooling fan intake located at the
bottom of the DittoPro-R 3D Printer.
Stability
Place the DittoPro-R 3D Printer on a flat and firm surface.
Excessive vibrations or shaking will affect print quality.
High Temperature
The printer’s nozzle can reach upwards of 200°C during
operation. Children and pets should be kept clear of
moving parts during the printing process.
Power
Ensure the printer is placed near an accessible power
outlet. Avoid plugging the printer into an overloaded
power bar as electrical shorts may cause the printer to
reboot during printing.
Unboxing
For long term storage, cover your printer to prevent
dust from accumulating on motion components.
Step 2
Removing the Shipping Bracket and Filament
Remove the top foam shipping bracket and take out the 3D
printing filament located at the side of the box. Remove the
DittoPro-R 3D Printer and place it upright on a firm flat surface.
Unboxing
Step 4
Turning on the Printer
Insert the female end of the power cord into the socket located on the back panel of the printer and the male end into the power socket. Turn on
the printer by flipping the power switch to the On position ( I ).
Store the removed clips and reuse when transporting the printer for shipping.

Step 3
Removing the Gantry Clips
Located near the top of the DittoPro-R 3D Printer are two plastic gantry clips that prevent the extruder from moving freely during shipping. You
can remove the two gantry clips securing the extruder by pushing down the tabs on each end of the clips.

Loading the Filament
Step 5
Loading the Filament
Remove the spool of filament from the packaging and place it on the spool holder. Take the end of the filament from the spool and insert it into
the guide tube. Make sure the filament spool spins clockwise as the filament feeds into the guide tube.
Have a frim grip on the loose end of the filament when installing or
removing the spool from the printer. Letting go of the loose end before it is
secured may cause it to coil back and become tangled. These tangles are not
easily spotted, and may cause problems during printing.
For long term storage, retract and remove the filament from the printer. PLA
filament can become brittle over time as it is exposed to UV and moisture.
Store opened spools of filament inside the original packaging or in a sealed
bag with a desiccant packet.
The use of third-party filament voids the warranty on your DittoPro-R 3D Printer.

Loading the Filament
Step 6
Loading the Filament (Cont.)
Thread the filament through the guide tube (1). Push the tensioner button (2) down to make it easier to thread the filament through the drive
gear and into the hotend (3). Once the filament is inserted all the way down into the hotend, insert the guide tube into the top of the extruder
cap.

Trim off the tip of the filament with a pair of scissors if you are having trouble feeding the filament into the hotend.
Installing the Glass Print Surface
Step 7
Installing the Glass Print Surface
Slide the glass print surface onto the bed with the blue painter’s tape side facing upward. The taped surface will act as an adhesion material for
the PLA plastic. At an angle, slide the glass print surface into the two rear corners of the bed. While gently pushing it against the rear corners,
clip the print surface into the two front corners as illustrated below.
7
Replace any worn or damaged blue painter’s tape as needed to ensure that your prints stick properly during the printing process.
When replacing worn print surface tape, avoid overlapping strips of tape. The overlaps create an uneven print surface, which can
result in poor print adhesion.

First Time Setup
Step 8
First Time Setup
Upon powering up your DittoPro-R for the first time, you’ll be prompted to perform a one-time setup for your printer. The setup process will
guide you through the steps of naming your printer and connecting it to a wireless network.
Touch the on-screen button to proceed or select Skip
the setup to perform the setup at a later time.
Use the on-screen keyboard to type and assign a
identification name for your printer. Press OK to
proceed.
8
To transfer files for wireless printing, you’ll need to
connect the printer to a wireless network. Select the
network you wish to connect to and enter the password
on the following screen. Press Skip to setup wireless
connection at a later time.
Setup complete! Click OK to process to the Home
screen.
Print Surface Levelling
Step 9
Print Surface Levelling
You’ll need to perform a print surface calibration for your printer to ensure the print surface is perfectly levelled in relation to the print nozzle.
Doing so allows the molten plastic to evenly adhere onto the print surface during printing. It is recommended that you perform the calibration
process every time the printer has been transported to a new location.
9
Press Start to initiate the the print surface levelling
wizard.
From the Home Menu, select Surface Levelling to
access the calibration wizard.
Once pre-heating is complete, follow the
on-screen instructions to level the print surface.
Once the calibration is complete, press Back to Home
to return to the Home Menu or Start a Print to select a
file for printing.
