Submitting Your 3D Print

Preparing and Submitting your 3D Model for Printing

The 3DPrinterOS software at the Maker Commons can accept STL, OBJ, and CAD files as a starting point before slicing. For best results, we recommend STL files. There are also other important considerations for increasing your chances of having a successful print.

After Your Print Has Been Submitted

After you receive the “print finished” email, your print will be available for pick up at the Commons Services Desk in Pattee Library if you are a University Park student. Commonwealth campus students can expect their print to arrive at their Penn State library within 3 – 5 days of receiving the “print finished” email.
