A pre-assembled Printrbot Play (model 1505) was donated around 7 November 2016. It is one of several 3D Printers Bloominglabs has.

The complete, official documentation can be found on this Google Drive folder.

Cura is the slicing program recommended by Printrbot. It has a built-in profile for the Printrbot Play.

When the Printrbot Play was donated, it was nonfunctional. On February 23, 2017, Apple reloaded the bootloader and firmware with:

avrdude
a USBtinyISP programmer.
the RepRap wiki page on the Printrbot's control board: reprap.org/wiki/printrboard
BootloaderHID.hex
play-0.6.hex

The controller board, firmware, steppers, and sensors seem to be working fine.

Challenge now is test various filaments and to locate printer in a more permanent location with a dedicated ag150.
