  4. Ensure the Process light on the tool (green) is not lit. If it is currently lit, ensure that the Holder Exchange dialog is open. If not, click Exchange Holder.
  5. Press the Open button, it should flash and the lid can now be opened.
  6. Open lid and sample holder lid.
  7. Remove black cap from center-most microscope position, install the objective
    1. Objective should be inserted only until rotation stops. Do not overtighten.
    2. For the 25X objective, ensure the correct Adjustment Ring setting is selected. For most cases, Glyc with the 3 longest bars is used.
  8. Install resin stop on the objective. 
    1. For 10 and 25X, a silicone stop is used. For the 63X, a fiber ring is used.
  9. Select an appropriate sample holder and place on the white and black support with the Resist side facing up.
  10. Place your substrate in the holder and tape down with at least two strips of tape from the dispenser.
  11. Place a drop of resin on the substrate.
    1. For 63X oil-based printing, please be sure to place the oil on the proper orientation - the oil should be in contact with the lens, not the resin
  12. Ensure the sample holder lid in the printer is placed in the partially opened position, supported by the latch.
  13. Bring sample holder to printer. Immediately before inserting, flip sample holder upside-down and insert in the printer.
    1. For all resin-based prints, the resin side of your substrate should be facing the objective.
    2. For oil-based printing, the oil side should be facing the objective
  14. Close sample holder lid and secure down with both clamps.
  15. Ensure all lens holders, tools, etc. are clear of the tool and close the main lid.
