#2 RTFM (read the friken manual)
#3 PC or Stand Alone ?
Like anything, the more you do it, the better you get at it.
#1 Have Patience
The learning curve is mid to high , based on the unit you chose. Me I chose a XYZ Da Vinchi Jr 1, and PC based (windows 7) slicing /controller (already had working computer in stock).
I am impressed on the unit and the quality of prints. There is a few pros and cons about this unit but we can do that later.
Took me a whole day (12 hours) to get everything running 100 percent, so just relax and focus on each step.
#1 install the right software
call the support number and email for version recommended for your unit. The version they gave me first didnt even see the spool , but the second worked but crashed. After doing and upgrade ( another mistake) the software no longer saw the attached printer ( not good).
always do backups, and roll back if you have to.
The best software version that worked best with my unit was :
xyzware 2.1.33.2 found here (worked good stable)
#2 read the manual, I know looks simple , read the manual anyway. It helps to read on how to load and unload material and other related procedures for decent quality prints.

# PC/MAC or Stand Alone
Sure wish they made linux software , but we had a windows pc ready with windows 7. Software complains of not being the newest Open GL and memory ( we ordered.
Follow your setup/unpacking instructions to the letter, and enjoy !
