Are you also totally new to 3d modelling as well, because if you are then you have a lot to learn....
..and unless you have an Ultimaker 3 then forget about printing that model and expecting decent results. Learn about overhangs and support structures. and bad geometry.
The topology on that model of yours looks real bad im afraid. None of the verts look looks fused or welded.
try solid simple shapes before moving onto more complex geometry. Try a cube, a then a sphere and then a cube with a hole in it, and then some upright extruded letters such as S and A and you will soon understand the pitfalls of 3D printing that you need to work around unless you want to wait ages for dual material printing.
