By clicking on this link, it should start downloading a file to your Downloads folder. Once the file is downloaded, open it with FlashPrint.
If you do not have the FlashPrint application, you can download it here. Make sure to download version 4.3.1.
A box should show up asking if you want the model to be on the platform, click "Yes". Then it should ask you if you want to repair the errors on the file, click "Ignore". This should get the model centered on the platform. Once you have done that, click the blue "Print" button at the top of your screen. Make sure to use these settings:
