I'm having some trouble when I export a WRML file and open it in 3DPrint (The software to my ZPrinter 450). It only says import failed.
If I open the file in 3DEdit Pro and only save it as a new file it works fine.
Anyone else here who has a 3D printer? How do you do with your WRML files?

ArchiCAD 17 supports STL for 3D printers. I'm not aware of any WRML support. How did you export WRML?

Ah. The confusion is that you asked about WRML several times... and the format you are using is VRML.
Graphisoft's support for 3D printers seems to be focused on STL format.
You've found a workaround of opening and saving the VRML file in 3DEdit Pro, so you are able to complete your work, right?
You can submit a bug report through the tech support for Sweden.
You can find what other people have said about using VRML format by searching here:

Really, no discussion in several years though...
