Effective with the April, 2018 update to EasyRx, EasyRx now integrates with 3D Systems NextDent Sprint software, allowing you to easily select based STL files in EasyRx and open these files in 3D Sprint software.
Integration Notes:
The integration can be enabled on any machine with 3D Sprint installed
3D Sprint version 2.8.0.3056 or higher is required
The Integration requires the EasyRx Web Extension to be installed on each machine with the integration enabled
The EasyRx Web Extension is supported on Chrome and FireFox.
If you run both Chrome and FireFox on the same machine, the web extension installer must only be run one time.
Enabling the integration
When the integration is enabled, EasyRx automatically downloads the EasyRx Web Extension installer. After the installer has finished downloading, click open to run the installer. Reminder: The EasyRx Web Extension must be installed for the integration to work.
NOTE: The EasyRx Web Extension is only compatible with PCs. It is currently not compatible with MAC OS platform.
Follow the instructions to run the installer. It will only take a few seconds for the installer to complete. Once the Web Extension is properly installed, the integration is ready to go.
Using the integration
You can access the integration from the View STL Print List Screen and when viewing Patient Information:
Using the integration from the View STL Print Print Screen
Go to the EasyRx 3D - View STL Print List Screen
This loads the STL Print List screen:
From this screen, select the files to be printed by clicking the appropriate checkbox and click the 3D Sprint icon. EasyRx will launch 3D Sprint software and "pass in" the selected STL files. One click to open files for 3D printing!
Using the from the Patient Screen
To use the integration, lookup the patient, click View and scroll down to the File Uploads section. You will see the 3D Sprint logo next to each file in the File Uploads section.
Click the 3D Sprint logo on the row of the file you wish to open to launch the integration.
For example, to open the J Appleseed Upper.STL file, click the 3D Sprint logo on that row.
When the logo is clicked, this automatically open 3D Sprint and passes in the STL to the 3D Sprint software.
Opening Multiple Files from the Patient Screen
To multiple STL files, leave 3D Sprint software open, go back to EasyRx and click the logo on the row of the file you wish to open. This will pass in additional STL files to the already open copy of EasyRx:
