1 3D printers take (% class="mark" %)##.gcode##(%%) files as input. The purpose of the slicing is to convert your 3d model (commonly in (% class="mark" %)##.stl##(%%) format) into (% class="mark" %)##.gcode##(%%) that the 3D printer can understand.

3 There are many different kinds of slicers. If you're using a Creality brand printer you will need to use [[Creality Print>>Workflows.3D Printing.Slicing.Creality Print.WebHome]], however for all other machines the most common slicer at MCI is [[Prusa Slicer>>Workflows.3D Printing.Slicing.Prusa Slicer]]. Click on the links for the slicer you're using to access the MCI guide for it.
