Replicator 1
Using Slic3r for the Makerbot Replicator 1 (the original replicator) with dual extrusion is described here.
The workflow normally is
- Obtain an stl, drop it on the platter in Slic3r
- Create an new gcode file, create optionally also a new stl (for viewing purposes).
- Open the gcode (or stl) in ReplicatorG which is the original software for the Makerbot Replicator 1. Click on the build button to send the gcode to the printer.
