Reverse Print Profile for Text/Image
Print Profile(1)

Description
Have you ever wanted to print a perfectly legible multicolored text or logo on the side of the print bed, with a smooth and professional finish? This print profile is designed to achieve reverse prints that are legible from the front, ideal for nameplates, badges, custom covers, and multicolored graphic projects.
The trick? The printing takes place "in reverse", starting with the visible details (text or image) in direct contact with the print bed. The result is a smooth, glossy front surface with well-defined colors, like screen printing.
The profile has been optimized for:
✅ Perfect adhesion to the bed without smudging
✅ Calibrated initial layers to prevent crushing or distortion of the text
✅ Compatible with PLA, PETG
🔎 Important recommendation:
To achieve optimal coverage and well-saturated colors, ensure that the text or colored areas are at least 1 mm thick (Z-axis). Thinner thicknesses may not uniformly cover the background color or may show unwanted transparency.
To publish the profile, I have included a simple test nameplate model with some text:
Usage tips:
- Make sure to mirror the text or image before exporting the model
- Use a smooth or rough bed (depending on the desired effect)
- If you use a glossy bed, you will get a "glass-like" finish on the front
Let me know what you think!
