• Print Bed Calibration: The on-screen instructions here provide you with guidance on
how to adjust the distance between the nozzle and the Heated Print Bed to ensure that your
model prints correctly. The smaller the distance, the more ‘squashed’ the lament will be
to the bed, whereas a larger gap may cause the lament not to adhere to the bed correctly.
Follow these step-by-step instructions to see how to make this adjustment for a successful
