How can a slicer help optimize material usage when printing multiple small parts?
ABy increasing print speed to reduce material
BBy arranging parts close together and minimizing support structures
CBy changing the model file format
DBy printing parts one at a time with large gaps
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand slicer layout features

    Slicers can arrange parts tightly to save space and reduce waste.
