The ELEGOO NEPTUNE 2S is an FDM 3D printer from ELEGOO with a 220 x 220 x 250 mm build volume.
Action: Assemble the printer fully, verify that the frame is square, belts are snug but not over-tight, eccentric rollers contact the V-wheels evenly, and the gantry moves without binding across the full travel range. Confirm the machine boots normally, the touchscreen responds, the SD/TF card is recognized, and the firmware menu is accessible.
Symptoms: First layers may be inconsistent from edge to edge, especially after moving the printer, changing build surfaces, or heating the bed to a new material temperature.
Cause: The provided sources do not document an ABL probe or auto-mesh system on the Neptune 2S; the platform appears to rely on conventional manual leveling and Z-offset discipline.
