How do i save in .CTB format?

Guest 2020-6-24 26688

I have a QIDI Tech Shadow 5.5S. I have contacted QIDI Tech and was informed that I need to save in a .CTB format. The first test print on the memory stick is a,CTB file it printed great. From all the options "Save as" to "Save project" it does not seem to be there. I have tried all the available formats (.stl, .obj, .chitubox) The Shadow 5.5S will not recognize any of them nor print them?

    To save a file in .CTB format using QIDI Tech Shadow 5.5S, you need to use a slicer software such as Chitubox.

    - Open Chitubox and import your 3D model.

    - Slice the model and select the QIDI Tech Shadow 5.5S printer profile.

    - Click on the "Save" button and select the ".CTB" file format.

    - Save the file to a USB drive.

    - Insert the USB drive into the QIDI Tech Shadow 5.5S printer and start the print job.
