Print this worksheet or use your browser’s “Save as PDF”. Work from the exact printer manual and material instructions. No hardware tests are claimed.

1. Three things I want to make

Object and purpose	Width × depth × height (mm)	Material / requirements

2. Before I shortlist

□ Objects fit with room for orientation, supports and brims.
□ The manual supports the material, nozzle and profile I intend to use.
□ I have checked footprint, moving parts, feeder and installation clearance.
□ I have planned the handling and workspace requirements for the material.
□ I know which feeder and accessories the selected bundle actually includes.
□ I have read shipping, return and support terms for my address.
□ I have saved the official specification and date checked.
