Did the Ultimaker 2 setting work with the Minitoy? I can't get any of the files to print correctly.

I can't help you but wanted to say that I too cannot print anything other than what came with the minitoy. Really frustrated. I tried both Cura and Slic3r. With Cura my files start at the rear right corner of the plate and with the Slic3r the files start in the rear, middle of the plate. Nothing centers.
HELP would be appreciated. Others have same problem as posted on the Facebook site as well as the Kickstarter campaign comment section.

So the settings for Cura2 that currently work for me are laid out in the pictures below.
You must create a profile for the Minitoy before you change the "Print Setup" settings.
The profile will need to have the correct "Machine Settings" and the settings that work best for me are in the first pic I posted below. I'm sure they could be tweaked, but so far I'm printing really good models with these settings.
When you open Cura2, select the profile you created for the Minitoy. After you open the STL file, change the printer settings to match the pictures below.
Again, I'm sure the settings could be tweaked for each model you print, but these are working for me quite well. I've printed a number of great items with the settings.
You should watch some videos on Cura2 to get a better understanding of the settings. You will want to adjust them to the types of items you are printing.
Please let me know if this helps and if you have other suggestions.

The settings don't seem to work for me and now my filament won't load. I've just about had it. I wish there was a definitive answer for the proper settings to use.

Wondering, have you determined better settings for use with the MINI TOY? I could really use your help. I had settings but then I cleaned my computer and lost them all. I should have screen shot them first.

Not sure if you still need help.
Does your printer print the files that came on the dropbox or SD card?
