right to print using the Dremel 3D45. When making
objects using the Dremel 3D45, it is your responsibility
to ensure that you do not infringe any third party
intellectual property rights or violate any applicable
laws or regulations, such as U.S. or foreign intellectual
property laws. The Dremel 3D45 may not be used to
make objects protected by intellectual property rights
owned by third parties without such third parties’
permission. Using the Dremel 3D45 to do any of the
following may require the permission of third parties:
to make a duplicate or facsimile (in whole or in part) of
any object not created by you, to make an object from

your responsibility to obtain such permission. In some
cases, you may not be able to obtain such permission.
Where such permission cannot be obtained, you
should not 3D print such object, or you do so at your
own risk. You may not modify, reverse engineer,
decompile, or disassemble the Dremel 3D45 or its

1. To complete initial setup, tap “Start” when prompted
on the initial setup screen. If you decline this setup
you can always setup network later.
2. If you choose “Start”, 3D45 will automatically
connect to your ethernet (if plugged into router skip
to step 5) or search for available wireless networks.
3. Choose your wireless network using the
touchscreen. Use the arrows to scroll through the
list of available wireless networks. Tap on your
network name to accept it.
4. Enter your wireless network password and tap
“Done”.
5. Write down the token displayed at the bottom of
the touchscreen. This token will be used to link
your printer to your Dremel account.
6. Visit Dremel3d.com and follow the prompts to

NOTE: You have the option to enter advanced
printer mode to manually alter print settings after
you change lament. Please check all settings (if
manually entered) as improper settings may cause
prints to fail, property damage, or personal injury, see
“Filament Type and Settings” chart on page 21.
NOTE: You also have the option to enter advanced
printer mode, which allows you to pull print settings
from the saved sliced le. This will prevent the
printer from altering its print settings. Please check
all settings prior to printing as improper settings
may cause prints to fail, property damage, or
personal injury.

NOTE: Ensure the gears inside of the extruder
have properly grabbed the lament before you
nish the lament change. You will feel a tug and
see the lament start to feed itself into the extruder

NOTE: Your Dremel 3D45 was tested by building
objects before leaving the factory. These test objects
may have been made with a different lament color
than you are using. Therefore, a small amount of
lament may be remaining in the extruder.

USE EXTRA CARE NOT TO
DAMAGE THE EXTRUDER TIP
WHEN CLEARING DEBRIS. DREMEL 3D45 WILL NOT
WORK PROPERLY WITH A DAMAGED EXTRUDER TIP
AND WILL REQUIRE REPLACEMENT.
11. Close 3D45 lid and door.
