11 Before printing

Before you can print you must
calibrate the print bed
load the filament

11.1 Calibrating the print bed

Calibrate the print bed before you use the printer for the first time, after transporting
the printer, and whenever you get poor print results that you suspect are related to an
incorrectly levelled print bed.
Three calibration procedures can be applied to the print bed.
Automated print bed levelling – "Auto-levelling"
1
Use "Auto-levelling" to level the print bed automatically. "Auto-levelling" will attempt to
level the print bed with high precision and is only useful for making fine adjustments to
the print bed.
2
Z-offset calibration
3
By calibrating the Z-offset you set the distance between the nozzle and the print bed.
Z-offset calibration is followed by "Auto-levelling".
4
Manual print bed levelling
5
You level the print bed manually to prepare it for "Auto-levelling". Manual levelling must
always be followed by Z-offset calibration and "Auto-levelling".
