FLASHING GREEN/BLUE:

Flashing towards the tip of the pen

indicates the filament is moving forward.

Flashing towards the back of the pen

indicates the filament is in reverse.

How it Works:

The 3Doodler Flow melts plastic filament and uses a motor and gears to push it through the

pen's nozzle in a thin line. This process is called extruding or extrusion, and we will refer to it

throughout this user manual. Once extruded, the filament cools and hardens quickly, allowing

you to draw on surfaces and in the air. This user manual will show you how!

Plug the power cord into

the power adapter. Plug the

power adapter into the wall.
