The Prepare Menu - Creality ENDER-3 V2 User Manual

3. The Prepare Menu

This allows manual control of the printer to prepare it for printing.
Functions available here are:
Move
Move the nozzle around the axes of the printer manually and control the extruder. For the XYZ axe, select whichever one you want
to move and then select the new position value, relative to the home position, you want to move to. Tap to move the nozzle to the
new position.
For the extruder the position is relative to the starting position of the extruder.
Disable Stepper
Cuts power to the stepper motors via the motherboard. This protects the motherboard from currents generated by the motors when
they are moved manually. It is important to select this before moving any of the axes manually/by hand to prevent damage, even
then only move the axes manually slowly.
Auto Home
Sends the nozzle to the home position (front left bottom) and calibrates the position.
Set home Offsets
Takes the current nozzle position as the new desired home position by setting offsets from the actual home position.
Preheat PLA or ABS
Heats the bed and nozzle and runs the cooling fan to the configured values for either PLA or ABS
Cooldown
Starts a controlled cooling down of the bed and nozzle while leaving the fans running. Use this rather than just powering off the printer!
Language selection
Select and Tap to toggle the display language (English or Chinese)
