			=Safety Instructions=

			We recommend the following practice instructions for the safe and effective use of our printers. Failure to follow these practice instructions may
			(i) degrade your printer’s performance;

			(ii) cause injury and/or damage;

			(iii) disqualify you from customer support. Please ensure that you have read and understand all practice instructions before using your Prusa I3 printer for the first time.

			You can contact the Prusa I3 Customer Support Team with any questions about the practice instructions at our [forum].


			'''Operation'''

			*Never reach inside your Prusa I3 printer when it is turned on. Moving parts can cut or pinch you, and several parts reach high temperatures that can cause burns and other injuries.

			*Always allow your Prusa I3 printer to cool down for at least 5 minutes before you touch any internal part or remove a printed object.

			*Never leave your Prusa I3 printer unattended while printing or powered on.

			*Always turn off your Prusa I3 printer and disconnect it from your computer when not in use.

			*Never attempt to print using any materials that have not been approved by Prusa I3.

			*Keep the nozzle tip at least two inches away from the heated build platform anytime you are not running a print job.

			*Never operate your Prusa I3 printer if it appears damaged.

			*In case of an emergency or malfunction, immediately disconnect your Prusa I3 printer from the power outlet and computer.

			'''Placement'''

			*Always operate your Prusa I3 printer in an open, well-ventilated area to allow potentially irritating fumes to dissipate.

			*Never operate your Prusa I3 printer outdoors, near open windows, or anywhere where it may be exposed to water or moisture.

			*Always place your Prusa I3 printer on a flat and sturdy surface to avoid power interruptions and deformities in your prints.

			*Never place objects on or above your Prusa I3 printer or power supply.

			*Always have a working fire and smoke alarm in the same room as your Prusa I3 printer.

			*Never place your Prusa I3 printer near open flames, heat sources, or flammable materials.

			'''Connectivity'''

			To avoid printing interruptions, disable your screensaver, sleep, and hibernate functions on your computer.

			*Make sure the heating plate and extruder are not heated when starting software.
			Power

			*Plug your computer and Prusa I3 printer into the same power outlet for best performance.

			*We recommend plugging your Prusa I3 printer into a surge protector with a circuit breaker.
			Never attempt to open or fix your power supply. If you believe your power supply is not working properly, contact us asap.

			*Only use the power supply that was provided with your Prusa I3 printer.

			*Do not plug your Prusa I3 printer into the same outlet as power hungry devices such as air conditioners, space heaters, or other large appliances.

			'''Modifications'''

			Prusa I3 printers are tested for performance and safety before they leave the factory. Prusa I3 cannot guarantee the performance or safety of printers that have been modified by users.


			[[File:Warning.png\|40px\|]]'''Warnings'''

			*THERE IS A RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. UNIT IS NOT USER SERVICEABLE.

			*Prusa I3 PRINTERS CONTAIN HEATED MOVING PARTS. NEVER REACH INSIDE THE PRINTER WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION OR BEFORE IT HAS COOLED DOWN.

			*NEVER LEAVE YOUR Prusa I3 PRINTER UNATTENDED WHILE POWERED ON OR PRINTING.

			*DISCONNECT YOUR Prusa I3 PRINTER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY AND COMPUTER WHEN NOT IN USE.

			*DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PRINT MATERIALS NOT APPROVED BY Prusa I3.

=Features=
1.Re-designed barrel of extruder to support multiple filaments: ABS/PLA/Flexible PLA/WOOD, making 3D printing more flexible.

2. Further simplified structure means fast assembly and easy adjustment, which saves you both time and energy as well as speeds up the molding of your innovative products and ideas. It usually takes up to 3 days for a DIYer to assemble the previous I3, not to mention the post-adjustment and debugging work. As to this I3 of Acrylic Frame, however, you can save 70% of time.

3. Enhanced stability and reliability. Geeetech I3 pro B adopts 8 mm-thick acyclic plates, also you can choose the piano-black one and the transparent one, and both colors look good.

4. The PSU (power supply unit) is assembled together with the printer; which saves you a lot of space and can avoid unnecessary electrical trouble.

5. All the cables and wires are well arranged to make it more neat and easy to operate.

6. MK8 extruder ensures smaller layers and higher resolution, make models and objects.General Tips & Tricks for printing with Flexible and wood
