Zortrax M200 - information for Walton & Elbert students.

The Zortrax M200 is the 3D printer on the Elbert and Walton campuses. It requires the Zortrax Z-Suite. If you want to download this software to your personal computer, you can visit this link. Our printer uses version 2.32.0. This software allows you to convert .STL files to .zcode files that the printer can read.

Students can also access the ZSuite software from a designated computer in the library. Look for the "ZSuite/3D Printing" signage, or ask at the library desk.

If you have questions about how to use the 3D printer on the Walton or Elbert campuses, please email Lisbeth Wells-Pratt or contact the library via Chat, email, or telephone.
