Claim 13:
14. A system for generating custom three-dimensional (3D) print modes, comprising:
a design of experiments (DoE) module to instruct at least one 3D printing device to print a plurality of parts, the parts each being printed using different process parameters, wherein the DoE module:
varies the process parameters of each of the builds of each part; and
evaluates an impact of the process parameters and the interactions of the process parameters on the parts;

an imaging device to capture a plurality of images of the plurality of parts;
an image analysis module to classify the parts into a plurality of defect gradings;
an adjustment module to adjust a number of the process parameters based on characteristics of the parts identified by a user as undesirable; and
a recommending module to create a custom print mode based on the parts defect gradings and adjusted process parameters.
