Need help with 4-color printing u1

Hi,

I am new to multicolor printing and need help trying to print a CYMK Lithophane.

I used a program to create the necessary stl-files (Itslitho). Each file creates a layer in 1 color

  • As described I imported the files together into the Snapmaker Orca as a Single Object
  • The colors in the slicer correspond with the toolheads of the U1.
  • I made sure the Prime Tower was enabled
  • I picked “slice all”

After I sliced there was no tower. I printed a few layers but it was all just in white.

What am I not doing or doing wrong to get a tower and a correct multicolor print?

Anything U1-related can be posted in this section.

When asking for help with a specific issue, please share plenty of images or files for reference—screenshots of your slicer settings, preview shots, or even the 3MF itself—so forum members can slice it and compare results.

Consider it solved

I believe your issue is Single Object… you need multiple Objects in order to properly assign the Toolheads/colors.
