Setting up the H2D couldn't be easier. Unlike the fiddly builds of older 3D printers, this machine arrives almost fully assembled straight out of the box. Simply place the AMS unit (the box that holds and automatically feeds the filament into the printer) on top, connect the tubes and cables at the back, and power up. The H2D then takes care of all calibration and setup, guiding you step-by-step through the entire process, including installing the filament. This is one of the first printers to offer up to five filaments out of the box – four in the AMS multifilament unit and one for standard or specialist materials on the side. These specialist materials, such as carbon-fill and TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), put far greater demands on printers but offer more flexibility, especially for professional use.
