Chapter 2
Start printing

Once you have your printer connected to the Polar Cloud (see Chapter 1), you can start your first print through the Polar Cloud!1

For your first print, you’ll want to load filament (Section 2.1), get an object (Section 2.2), and then start a print job (Section 2.3); you can monitor the printing of your object through the Polar Cloud, including printer dashboard progress display and real-time video (Section 2.4) as the printer prints your object.
