Change the color of plastic parts

 Hi!

I decided to change the color of plastic parts with orange on black. Tell me about the printing of complex parts - print with support?

Complex details, such x-end-idler, mmu2-idler, mmu2-pulley-body and similar.

Thanks!

RE: Change the color of plastic parts

I've only printed the selector, but I was just looking at the HowToPrintParts.pdf that comes with the MMU2S stil files and I don't see supports mentioned.  I did use supports when I printed the selector.  I think for the most you can look at the model and see what might need supports.   I was going to do the same thing as you.  I have two printers and I was going to do an autobots(blue) and decepticon(purple) thing.  I stopped short of replacing most of the parts since I didn't really want to mess with doing the belts etc.  but the lcd cover looks pretty awesome in those two colors.
