Hello,

I am new to 3D printing.

If I have a model (STL) with dimensions e.g. 25cm x 25cm x 25cm, and a printer whose capacity is LESS than the model size:

Can the printer automatically rescale it?

Or do I need to rescale the model using third party software before printing?

Thanks for any help.

David
