* Preparing the Mark II for the Next Print

'''Software:'''
The Mark II utilizes cloud-based print software Eiger. This means that the software can be accessed from any browser, but an account is required to do so. As such, prints will need to be started by management.
After login, the main screen returns to library. From this page, you can view and modify previous prints for reprinting or import a new STL for printing.
Once imported or selected, print material may be selected (Onyx in this case) reinforcement type may be selected and orientation may be edited in the pane on the right. Clicking a part face will orient that face to the build plate. Reinforcement and material settings may be edited with drop-down menus. All these options are available from part view.
From internal view, density (number of layers of carbon fiber) may be viewed and edited using the slider at the bottom of the page (Blue is carbon fiber, White is main material).
Material costs and totals may be viewed in the upper left of the part screen. It's worth noting the dramatic change in cost with addition of Carbon Fiber inlay.
All Mark II prints should be okay-ed with Justin before being started. Once setup is completed, prints are sent to the printer via the "Print" option. Generally, select the option to start the print from the machine, rather than automatically.
