maximum print volume

so I designed a part on solid works a 240 x 210 x210 box no top no infill because people were asking how big i could print. when i import it into prusa slicer it is too big i scaled it down to 99 percent and it turns green when placed on bed but when sliced it keeps saying an outside print area fault occurred any one know why? i have tried to slice it by layer height down but same thing and sometimes when i am slicing it it only slices the bottom layers and says it is done it wont show the walls of the box. i want to print this out so i can tell someone" if it fits in it can print"

RE: maximum print volume

Hi Dananette,

if you have a skirt set or support. that will end up exceeding the build area, if your really close before slicing
