Description
ACNode is in operation on the Ultimaker-1, the ultimaker-2 acnode is not yet commissioned. In order for your existing training to be approved on ACNode, you must run through a machine type induction to demonstrate how to use the sdcard with the Ultimaker.
If you have been trained previously and need approved on ACNode, contact the maintainers to be added to the acnode. Ultimaker recommend the use of Cura to slice and manipulate your model for printing.
