How Print this with only infill in the middle with solid walls

Hello,

 

I have downloaded this STL file and cannot figure out how to print this. Instructions from the STL author are as follows "The walls are set to 4mm and the top and bottom layer counts are set to zero so that your choice of infill is exposed to form the grid." The STL file loads as a solid bottom and top. I figured out how to take away the bottom and top layer to expose the infill but it also does it to the walls. How do I make the walls solid but the center exposed infill. thanks for your time, this may be fairly basic but I am pretty new to 3D Printing. links attached for reference.

Perfect, thank you so much,

So what is the magic setting to keep the walls solid but the middle expose infill? I would like to know for future projects. 3D printing is so cool
