I just purchased a [competitive printer] on Amazon. The spare parts were ordered two weeks ago and have not arrived. I tried calling the service line, but no local service was available and the international call involves time zone changes. The downtime has created inconveniences in a few jobs that were already scheduled. Business Owner, Laser Modeling Service Bureau | May 2016

ACCURACY and RELIABILITY… RELIES ON THE QUALITY OF THE PRINTER AND MATERIAL
Review of Competitor's ABS “Disappointing! Just opened the sealed bag of filament and tried to print with the blue. Even at the lowest setting (.4mm) the filament was stringy
and would not stick. I don't know if I got just a bad batch, but it sure is BAD Filament!” Amazon Reviewer
Review of Competitor's PLA “About halfway through the spool it became brittle. So brittle it was always
breaking while feeding into the printer making it useless. I have tried emailing [the company] numerous times to no avail.” Amazon Reviewer STRATASYS / THE 3D PRINTING SOLUTIONS COMPANY

FAQS Q: Can I use material from my Dimension or other Fortus machines? A: No. The material cartridges have been completely redesigned and will not fit. Q: Do I have to use the GrabCAD Print software? A: GrabCAD is the only software on the F170 and F270 models, the F370 also includes Insight.
Q: Can I record video of my prints with the new camera? A: No, the camera only takes still shots, does not collect the images and only shows the most recent picture. A time-lapse video capture is in the works, and planned for release later this year. Q: Is QSR similar to other Stratasys soluble support materials? A: Yes, it is the same formulation as SR-35. Q: What are the slice heights? A: 0.005, 0.007, 0.010, 0.013 in. (0.13, 0.18, 0.25, 0.33 mm) Q: Is Catalyst available on the F123 Series? A: No, GrabCAD Print is a replacement for Catalyst.
STRATASYS / THE 3D PRINTING SOLUTIONS COMPANY
FAQS Q: Are there different tips for the F123 Series? A: No. There is only one tip and it is built into the printer head assembly. It will print all layer thicknesses. Q: How is the head replaced? A: The complete head assembly is user replaceable with a simple process that takes less than a minute. Q: How long will a print head last? A: Heads will last for approximately 1500 hrs. of printing, about 1 year of average use. A warning replacement indicator will be shown after 1300 hrs. of use. Q: Can heads be used for both model and support? A: Yes, but once a head is used for model it can only be used for model until the end of its life. Same applies for a head used for support, it can only be used for support until the end of its life. Q: Are PLA heads different? A: Yes, PLA heads are gray in color (versus a black head for all other materials) and can only be used for PLA. Even though PLA does not use separate support material, a special cooling PLA head is put in place of the support head to cool the material as it prints. Q: What is draft mode? A: Draft mode builds 2x faster than standard build mode and uses 2/3 less material.
Q: How much faster is the Fortus 380mc over the F123 Series? A: Early testing shows the Fortus 380mc builds approximately 10% faster. STRATASYS / THE 3D PRINTING SOLUTIONS COMPANY
