	The German RepRap x350 Pro 3D Printer is a dual-printhead FDM printer. It operates very similarly to the [[Utilmakers 2 3D printer]], but the addition of a second extruder allows for multiple types of filament to be used. This can be utilized for multicolor prints, prints with dissolvable supports, and reinforced prints.		The German RepRap x350 Pro 3D Printer is a dual-printhead FDM printer.

	Issues involving print adhesion typically arise within the first few minutes of printing. Printed filament will remove itself from the print bed, resulting in the printer's inability to continue placing lines.		Issues involving print adhesion typically arise within the first few minutes of printing. Printed filament will remove itself from the print bed, resulting in the printer's inability to continue placing lines. The x350 Pro's bed is lined with a single layer of green PET tape to help with adhesion. This should only be changed if the tape layer becomes damaged or worn out.

	The primary safety concerns with the x350 Pro 3D Printers are the heated ~~nozzle~~ and, by extension, the hot filament that the ~~nozzle extrudes~~. Long pants, close-toed shoes, and safety glasses should be worn at all times while operating the x350 Pro. Care should be taken to avoid touching the ~~nozzle~~ and heated filament by hand; users should always use tweezers when handling heated filament.
