**FAQ**
*What CWB means?*
C is for color, W is for White and B is for Black. It's a guide to know which colors are used in every test and in which position.

 

*Can I use other colors besides Black and White?*
Yes! You can use any color you want, just swap the color on the slicer.

 

*Wich use does this test have?*
You can use it to test if your filament transparency is good enough to print one of our Retrovibes prints!

 

*Can it be printed using another material?*
We recommend using PLA tested with our "Color blending tester" included in this file. But you're free to try with other materials, have fun!

 

*This is for multicolor printers?*
Yes, it's meant to be used only on multicolor printers.

 

*Only 3 colors, what's the trick?*
We take advantage of the natural transparency of the colors to make them blend with each other using thin layers.
With this technique, you can print with different values using only 3 colors!

 

*Can I change the layer height?*
We don't recommend changing the layer height, this model is specially designed to be printed in 0.2 layer height. We can't warranty good results with other heights.


If I don't have a multicolor printer, i will be able to print it?
Unfortunately no, this print is designed to be used only on printers with multicolor systems.
If you know how to modify G-CODES and have an idea to solve this, please contact me at hello@merla3d.com.
