New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.-

You need a source of models - like thingiverse has over a million models to print. Or you can make your own with CAD. Is this what you are asking about?
Then you have to slice the model for the printer. That step you would use a slicer and for that you could use Cura (free). You can download cura onto pc/mac/linux computer and if you don't have a 3d printer yet then just choose anything non-ultimaker (because ultimaker printers mostly are expected to be visible on your network but non-ultimaker printers wouldn't be).
There are videos to help you choose cad, use cad, use cura, and use printers.
