Polaroid Play+ 3D Pen Bundle

Product Information

It is important to always use Polaroid 3D Pen Filament with your Polaroid Play+3D Pen as these have been specifically designed to work in conjunction with each other which means challenges such as this are minimised. If you are trying to load or unload filament and this is taking some time then you can speed up this process by pressing the ‘Speed Control’ button, until 3 green LED lights are showing indicating the extrusion speed is set to rapid. simply place underneath a standard sheet of greaseproof paper or baking paper/parchment paper and trace your design to easily create your very own edible Candies. To load new filament, firstly make sure the pen is turned on and the LED light is blue. Then place the filament into the loading hole at the top of the pen (the one next to where the power cable is inserted). Make sure the end of the filament is flat across the end before inserting (cut carefully with scissors if not). Insert the filament gently until it reaches the stop. Then simply press the Print button once and you will feel the filament being gently guided into the pen. This process will then continue automatically. Wait for the filament to be pulled all the way through the pen until you see it appear from the end of the nozzle. You can speed up this process by pressing the + button.

If you have confirmed that you are using the correct power supply and the pen is still not working, please try using an alternative power source (power bank, USB power adapter etc.) to ensure that this isn’t the cause of the challenge. Simply draw your designs in parts and use the Polaroid CandyPlay 3D Pen to join each of the parts together.

Limitless Possibilities and Simple to Use

Or, why not get those creative juices really flowing and free draw some tasty candies! Make your own lollipops, cake toppers or sweets to treat your friends and family! To retract filament, you simply press the on/off button for two seconds, and the remaining filament will emerge. A nice feature is the Play’s self-retracting shutdown. After seven minutes of non-use, the pen turns itself off, retracts the filament, and cools down. When loading a new filament color, be sure that all the old filament has been extruded and the new color appears before applying it. Power Requirement: 5.0 Volt DC, 2 Amp power adapter, NOTE make sure you are using 2 Amp plug, usually the kind for smart phones or laptops

You can draw or sketch your designs onto paper and trace them using greaseproof or baking paper/ parchment. You’ll then have your unique design drawn in candy! Once you’ve mastered the art of making your own candies using templates, why not take your creativity to the next level and start trying to create your own designs? You can also try slowing down your extrusion speed slightly as this means the melting temperature is slightly lower, which in turn may mean you see less of the ‘stringiness’.

The process of changing a colour is as follows. Firstly, to change the colour of the filament you are using, you need to unload any filament that is already in the pen. To do this, press and hold the Power button for a couple of seconds. You will see the LED light on the front start to flash from red to blue and you will hear the motor start to unload the filament. You will also see and be able to feel the filament moving as it is retracted from the pen. If you gently hold the end of the filament you will feel when it has come loose from the pen and it can then be removed completely. Next, make sure that your filament is inserted correctly into the pen. If you already have filament loaded please unload completely from the pen (by pressing and holding the Power button for a couple of seconds and waiting for the filament to be completely retracted). Once removed, please ensure that the end of the filament is flat across the end (cut carefully with scissors if not) before re-inserting into the Loading Point in the top of the pen (next to where the power cable is inserted).
