 Print files must be sliced specifically for the Mk3.9/Mk4. If you try to slice for the Mk3S you'll get a big red warning telling you that the file is sliced for the wrong printer. **Do not ignore this warning. You will damage the print sheet irreparably**.  Print files must be sliced specifically for the Mk3.9/Mk4.

   * textured -- this is the strongest sheet and is a good choice for general printing in almost any filament. It has slightly lower bed adhesion than smooth when printing PLA, but only slightly. Remember -- you may also need glue stick when using sticky filaments such as TPU.   * textured -- this is the strongest sheet and is a good choice for general printing in almost any filament.
