Leveling the Printing Bed Leveling before 3D printing is so crucial that it can influence the quality of the print-out. If the printing bed is too far from the extruder’ s nozzles, or if one part of the bed is farther away from the nozzles than another part, your 3D prints might not stick to the bed.

    F.  Troubleshooting and Maintenance F1. Troubleshooting (FAQ) Hardware Q. What if the filament is not properly discharged? There are many causes to prevent filaments from coming out well. One of the most common causes is when is clogged. When this happens, set the extruder temperature higher than 240℃ at [Utilities] > [Preheat Setting], and use [Preheat] function of display menu to melt the filaments accumulated inside the nozzle, whereby the nozzle can be unclogged.
  • Page 24 F.  Troubleshooting and Maintenance F1. Troubleshooting (FAQ) Hardware Q. What if the printed object is generated with shrinkage? It is important to control an ambient temperature of printed object under FFF method in which filaments are melted and stacked at a high temperature and stacked. When an ambient tem- perature of printed material is low, shrinkage might happen, and it may also occur if no heat exceed- ing a predetermined temperature is applied to the output board depending on used material.
