===Slicing a File for Printing===
*Download printer definitions and unzip: [http://wiki.roberttwomey.com/images/4/4a/Slic3r_creatorbot_configs.zip Slic3r_creatorbot_configs.zip]. This contains two files: '''Slic3r_creatorbot_config_ABS''' and '''Slic3r_creatorbot_config_PLA'''. These correspond to the print head and platform build temperatures for ABS and PLA materials, respectively.*In slic3r, load your printer configuration. '''''File->Load Config'Confi''''. Select '''Slic3r_creatorbot_config_ABS''' or '''Slic3r_creatorbot_config_PLA''' in the file dialog, depending on what material you are printing. Click "Open." The size of your build platform should update to reflect the Creatorbot settings.
*On the right hand side of the slicer window, select your printer config (for ex. '''Slic3r_creatorbot_config_PLA.ini''') under "Print settings", "Filament", and "Printer".
