Calibration

  • Start with a full mechanical baseline inspection before any software tuning.

Action: Power the printer off, then check that the X, Y, and Z axes move freely without grinding, binding, or asymmetric drag. Inspect belt tension by hand and confirm that the gantry is square, the bed carriage is stable, and the extruder carriage has no wobble. Verify the build plate is seated correctly on the magnetic base and that the nozzle is clean and not partially clogged.
