==Usage==
==Usage==
The leveling card should be near the machine and contains basic build platform leveling instructions.
I was told that ChiTu Box is bad at supports, and to do them in PrusaSlicer (you'll need to find/use/make a resin printer profile) then export your unsliced but supported model as STL for slicing in ChiTu Box.
Below is the official usage guide, and you may want to [[3D printer, resin (Anycubic Photon 5.5) ID:159#Usage|refer to the similar usage steps for our other resin printer]], but can basically be summarized as:
*BE CAREFUL not to damage the 4k LCD screen or FEP plastic film!
*level the build platform
*turn on / heat up cabinet, close doors!
*fill tank with resin choice/color/amount
*software, do your supports/slicing
*cabinet warmed up now?
*insert stick, hit go, leave for a while, check in occasionally for obvious fails
*the build platform won't fit in the [[Curing station (Anycubic Wash and Cure Machine) ID:160]]
*so remove your prints without damaging the build platform and toss them into the basket, see video ^
*pour unused resin back into bottle - the tank holding stand is good for this
*clean out any remnants from the tank, being careful not to damage the FEP plastic film
*CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF
*Think you're done cleaning? THINK AGAIN!!
