## Connect the Afinia QD330 to SimplyPrint

| Way of connecting | Status | What you need | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| SimplyPrint Client | Expected to work | A computer or Raspberry Pi on the same network that stays on, running the SimplyPrint Client | A Flashforge-built Adventurer 5M Pro (Polar3D lists it as 'Afinia QD330 (FFAD5MP)'; the manual says to use the power cord 'provided by Flashforge'); expected to connect like the 5M Pro. ([Source](https://polar3d.exceedlms.com/student/path/1305154/activity/1865170)); Expected to work like the Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro |
| OctoPrint (Directly, over USB) | Not expected to work |  | Its USB port takes flash drives; jobs go over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. ([Source](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0743/5236/1782/files/QD330_Manual_01-12-2024.pdf)) |
| Klipper (Moonraker) | Not compatible |  | Flashforge's closed Klipper-based firmware, no Moonraker. The community Klipper Mod for the Adventurer 5M Pro is untested on this Afinia-badged unit. ([Source](https://polar3d.exceedlms.com/student/path/1305154/activity/1865170)) |

## What slicer to use for the Afinia QD330

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Afinia QD330, but it takes standard G-code: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.

## Automate the Afinia QD330

**CoreXY printers push their prints off.** The Afinia QD330's bed only moves up and down, so the usual way to automate it is a G-code routine that lets the toolhead push the cooled print off the front of the plate before the next job starts.

### Ways to automate it

- [Push prints off with the toolhead](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/push-off): On a CoreXY printer, a G-code routine can push the cooled print off the front of the plate before the next job starts.
- [Your own ejection G-code](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/custom): Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.
- [A robot arm, or anything with an API](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/api): Tell SimplyPrint the plate is clear through the API or a webhook, from a robot arm or your own system.
- [Clear it by hand, keep the queue](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/manual-mode): AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.

[How AutoPrint works](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint). AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.
