No to print light boxes properly you clean your bed with soap and water and then you use purple aylmers washable glue to ensure amazing adhesion. It then takes about 30 seconds to wash the glue off under a sink. We sell 100 light boxes a week and this is the only tried and true method.

That sounds like a lot of wasted human time. Machine time is cheap... mine is not.

Replying to @L3DKoFi :
I'm may not fully understand your meaning regarding Machine time vs Human time. It seems to me that any down time is down time regardless the cause. I do know I spend Human time at work making money to purchase supplies to support my interest in 3d printing. I also know that a large portion of this money is spent on filament which isn't cheap, and also on replacing parts of my machines that wear down over time. The way I understand it is the majority of wear and tear done to these parts is during the initial startup of the printer and while laying down the first layer. Since I've already invested my Human time making the money needed to purchase these items, it doesn't feel like a waste of Human time to properly care for my investments. As for the Machine time, it seems to me that the time spent printing anything other than the final product should be considered non-production time. I see this print takes about 30 minutes, which is 30 minutes I could be printing something else other than a full sheet of filament with an advertisement on top. I feel a good solution has been to purchase additional sheets that I can properly care for and prepare as time allows while not having to take up my Machine's time doing not production work. Like I said, I don't fully understand what the meaning is behind your statement, but this is my understanding regarding the best use of Human time vs Machine time. I admit, there is the possibility that you're approaching this from the perspective of an organization that produces a larger quantity of prints to sell. I can see where a person may assume the ability to "clean" your bed by printing out a sheet of filament would be a time saver. I feel using this method would dramatically increase the financial cost of purchasing these materials and would require additional Human time to make this money back. Whereas, washing multiple sheets in soap and water, then using glue as an adhesive seems to a pretty quick and inexpensive alternative. Please help me understand where my logic is flawed on this matter.

This isn't really meant to be printed every time you need to clean your bed. More for before printing a light box with a white front. The 30 min (less in sport) is nothing compared to a wasted 7 hour print. I could print this 14 times for one failed print. Hand washing rhe plate ALWAYS leaves something on the bed either from washing or from drying.. I don't want that on the front of my light box. As long as it saves 1 in 14 prints, it's worth the time to be sure your 7 hour print looks perfect.

Thanks. I have a P1S, and the print head crashed. I scaled x axis down to 95, and it printed fine

Hmm that's weird.. it shouldn't crash the head. I also have a P1S and print this almost daily with no crashing šŸ¤” Thanks for the rating tho!

I have just printed it using the original profile in my P1S and the tool head crashed in the front right corner, causing small dent to the front cover. Please update the model's scale on the x axis so it would not happen to others :)

That is very weird that only a few people have this issue. Do you have the correct printer selected when printing? I know that can happen if wrong printer is selected. Either way, I'll update it today to give it a few mm

No, remove it before printing the light box. Any leftover filament from previous prints will stick to it.

Make sure you select the correct printer. This is for the P1 and X1 series.

Works good on a structured pei sheet. Tried it to print on my smooth side, because I always have a "shadow" of the last prints. Even when I clean it really hard with Iso or with dish soap. Unfortunaley this method with the printed bed cleaner also did't work.
