### How Printimir helps

STEP (.step/.stp) is a common exchange format for CAD models. The Printimir upload checks and configures the geometry before adding it to the cart as a custom print job.

Materials and colours are shown from the currently available range. Suitability, timing and quantity depend on the specific model and are not promised without reviewing it.

### Typical applications

- Designed parts directly from CAD
- Individual assembly parts exported as STEP
- Technical parts with exact dimensions

### Frequently asked questions

#### Are STEP files supported?

Yes. The current upload accepts STL, OBJ, 3MF, STEP and STP.

#### Do I need to convert STEP to STL first?

No. You can upload the STEP file directly; it is prepared during the upload process.

#### How should files containing several parts be structured?

Where possible, upload one closed solid per required part so the calculation is unambiguous.
