If you’ve been using any recent versions of ReplicatorG, you may be familiar with this dialog box.  It’s Print-O-Matic, a feature that was added to RepG in version 0025 (which should be pronounced “double-oh twenty-five,” as in “double-oh seven”) which is designed to make it easier to find workable Skeinforge settings for various layer heights and speeds.

While Print-O-Matic is fairly straightforward to use, we’ve had some requests from power users who wanted to know a bit more about exactly what it does, and some requests from less-advanced users who want to know good strategies for using it.  That’s why we’ve whipped up this documentation page which has both sorts of information.  You’ll find basic usage info there as well as tips on how to go deeper if you want to.

If you’ve been wondering about that “Print-o-Matic” thing, hopefully this will answer your burning questions.
