====== General Slicer info ======

  - Slic3r profile files are stored in ''C > Users > Elias Heuninck > AppData > Roaming > Slic3r > print''
    - This way they can be found & loaded by the Repetrel sofware.
  - Hyrel standard recipe naming convention: \\ ''0.5w, 0.2z, 30f, 35pct.ini'' = \\ ''nozzle width, layer thickness, travel speed, infill percentage''.


  - Generally it's sufficient to customise only the print settings profile, as the printer- and extruder profiles are already set up for all possible configurations.

=== Print settings ===
  - Layers and perimeters
    - sets Layer height
  - Vertical shells
    - sets wall count
    - option for spiral mode
  - Horizontal shells
    - sets floor and ceiling count
    - set both zero for open vase
  - Infill
    - in percentages
    - set zero for hollow structure
  - Skirt & Brim
    - useful for nozzle priming and perhaps bed adhesion
  - Support material
    - Will be zero in almost all cases
  - **Speed**
    - Use same speed for all moves (print and non-print moves)
    - ''8mm/s'' is a nice and conservative speed.
  - Multiple extruders
    - set to 1
  - **Advanced**
    - **Extrusion Width**: set to ''nozzle diameter + 10%''. For a nozzle of 1.5mm, adding 0.15 results in an extrusion width of 1.65mm. (calculate 10 %: ''x * 0.1 = 0.x'')
      - All the extrusion values should be the same
    - Overlap: set to 15%
  - Notes: Write date, name, project and reason for the profile. Be clear and thorough.

=== Filament settings ===
  - Filament
    - **Diameter: set to 17mm**. This is the inner diameter of the cylinder.
    - Extrusion multiplier: set to 1.
    - Temperature: set all to 0 for Plasticine.
  - Cooling: settings not relevant for ''EMO-25'' toolhead.

=== Printer settings ===
  - General
    - Size & coordinates
      - don't change
    - Capabilities
      - Extruders: 4
  - Custom Gcode: leave as default
  - Extruder x
    - Size
      - **Nozzle Diameter:** if I understand correctly, **this value is ignored.**
  - Other settings: leave at zero or at default.
