Calibration

  • Establish the printer’s true mechanical baseline before any slicer tuning.

Action: Assemble or inspect the A2 Plus frame so that the aluminum structure is square, the gantry is not racked, and the Y-bed moves without binding across the full 220 × 220 × 270 mm envelope. Check that the belts are tensioned evenly, the wheels or linear guidance components are not over-compressed, and the bed is firmly fastened to the moving platform.
