Calibration

  • Establish a clean mechanical baseline before any extrusion tuning.

Action: Place the printer on a rigid, level surface with enough clearance for the full 16-inch-class motion envelope, then inspect the frame for square, fastener tightness, belt path alignment, and carriage smoothness. Confirm that the build plate, if installed, is seated flat and that the Z system rises and falls without binding across the full travel range.
