- Can I send my slice file directly to my printer via Wi-Fi with Lychee Slicer?
It depends of your printers! You can send your files via Wifi on some printers such as the ApexMaker x1, Elegoo Saturn 3 Ultra or Elegoo Mars 4 Ultra.
How to know if your printer’s Wifi connectivity is supported in Lychee Slicer? Once Lychee Slicer is launched, look for the Wifi symbol next to the printer under 3D printer > Add > Resin 3D printer.
- What should I know as a beginner in resin 3D printing?
Welcome to the exciting world of resin printing! The best way to learn is through practice. Remember, it's perfectly okay to make mistakes as long as you learn from them.
Safety first: your health is more important than anything. Always follow the correct safety procedures, such as wearing gloves and a respirator when handling resin.
Prepare your model: start by learning how to support your models and adjust your resin settings for successful prints. Lychee Slicer is intuitive and easy-to-use, helping you prepare your model for optimal results.

- What are the best resin settings?
As users ourselves, all the Lychee team understands the complexity to find the perfect resin settings. That’s why our Community Resin Profiles, shared by Lychee Slicer users within the software, are a fantastic starting point in the quest for the best settings for your project. Check out our dedicated tutorial to learn how to use the "Community Resin Profiles" feature.
Keep in mind, these are guidelines and not an exact science. It may be tempting to take the easy path and simply copy settings shared online. However, these sources can sometimes be unreliable and potentially harm your printer. It's important to understand that the optimal resin profile is the one you develop through calibration. To learn calibration, please refer to our guide that assists you through the process step by step.
- What is the perfect exposure time for resin in 3D printing?
Similar to the best resin settings answer, there's no single "perfect" exposure time for resin in 3D printing. Finding the right exposure time for your resin model depends on a few factors, like the type of resin you're using and the power of your printer's light source. Here are some tips:
- Start with the manufacturer's recommendations: the popular resin manufacturers usually provide a range of recommended exposure times on their product information that you can directly find online.
- Test and calibrate: Each resin printer and resin liquid combination is unique. So, the best way to determine the ideal exposure time is to perform test prints, changing the exposure time within the slicing software. These tests will help you achieve optimal results.
- What is TSMC?
TSMC is an acronym for Two-Stage Motion Control. The goal of this Lychee Slicer feature is to reduce printing times while maintaining accuracy and success rates.
How it works? It does this by allowing you to set slower lift and retract speeds when you’re closer to the LCD and faster speeds when you’re further away.
- What is anti-aliasing, and how does it work?
Anti-aliasing is an amazing tool that creates smoother edges on your 3D print. In Lychee Slicer, you can turn the option “ON” to improve the print quality by adding better realism to a digital image.
How does anti-aliasing work in resin printing? The slicer generates various shades of grey pixels for the printer to calculate. A dark grey pixel allows only a small amount of UV light, while a light grey pixel allows a larger amount. The different levels of UV light passing through these grey pixels smooth the surface of your print, effectively removing the unsightly stepping effect.
