Ok new Photonsters here is how you get that first print to work, not the second third or twelfth print THE VERY FIRST ONE!
First of all check this link for the resin you want to use it's been compiled over the last month or so from brave and willing Photonsters who took those first frustrating steps and figured out how to get each resin to work (ALSO MAKE VERY SURE THE PLACE YOUR PRINTER SIT'S IS AT 22-24C OR 40 PLUS F AS TEMPERATURE WILL EFFECT THE RESINS ABILITY TO CURE)
Ok enough of that, here is the link to
Artur Fuste
's awesome resin settings spreadsheet.

NOW to level your plate exactly (and no you can't just half ass this levelling is EVERYTHING in this game 99% of all failed first time prints are due to levelling errors).
Follow this to the letter DO NOT skip any steps NONE!!
THIS IS MY TESTED AND PROVED METHOD FOR LEVELLING RIGHT EVERY TIME!! CLEAN ALL THE SURFACES I MENTION VERY VERY VERY WELL I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE IF YOU SKIP STEPS USING THIS METHOD, BUT IF YOU FOLLOW IT IT WILL WORK ALL THE TIME.
there is a way to really level like a boss clean the screen area and the bottom of the vat then the inside of the vat and the build plate Now put the vat in the machine and tighten it down good, then home with the plate loose and swap to 0.1 steps and lower the rest of the way making sure all the time to try and wobble the plate when you can no longer wobble the plate (it's not really level you just feel like it is at this point) drop it down just two more 0.1 steps then tighten the build plate and raise it three steps then set this as your new Z=0 and you will be good to go.
Now you have it level and your settings right and the temperature is good your first print should stick to the plate and not the FEP and you should be printing like a pro.
(once you have it level and set right you will not need to re level it unless you some how move the plate (dropping it or such) and will just be able to load the plate fill the vat and hit print
:D
If you have any further problems ask us here many of the Photonsters are perfectly willing to help you out (You are never alone with your Photon), And above all remember there is NO such thing as a stupid question, Just the one you never ask.
