    You will probably need to import it into Blender. Not very many Blender users here, but someone might know how,

    If the 3D model was not designed for printing you are going to need to be able to adjust it* so that you can actually print it in most cases.

    Getting from a 3D model of some sort to an STL is just a software juggling match that depends on what you started with for a model and what you have to use.

    *it is often easier to just redo the model with printing as your goal.
