¶ 1. How to level?
¶ 1) Steps for leveling
¶ 2) The function of the leveling paper is to simulate the FEP film.
a. If the distance between the platform and the release film is too large, the model will not stick to the printing platform and will fall off.
b. If the distance between the platform and the release film is too small, the model will stick tightly to the platform and be difficult to remove.
¶ 3) How to determine if the leveling distance is appropriate?
In step 5, use both hands to pull the leveling paper. If the paper requires some effort to pull out, then the leveling distance is appropriate.
The following three situations indicate that the leveling distance is not appropriate, and the leveling steps need to be repeated:
a) The leveling paper can be easily pulled out (distance too large).
b) The leveling paper cannot be pulled out even with great effort (distance too small).
c) The tightness on both sides of the leveling paper is inconsistent, for example, the leveling paper can be pulled out on the left but not on the right (the looser side may cause the model to fall off).
Note:
When tightening the screws, try to make the tightness of the four screws as consistent as possible.
¶ 2. Common reasons for leveling failure
¶ 1）Prompt "Home first, then move Z to the bottom! "
Cause: Zeroing was not done by clicking the "HOME" bottom first, but directly clicking "Z=0".
Solution: Please follow the leveling steps mentioned above and perform the leveling operation again.
¶ 2）Prompt "Out of zero area, setting invalid"
Cause: After clicking the "HOME" bottom to zero, the Z-axis was lifted more than 3.6mm, and then clicking "Z=0" would result in an invalid setting.
Solution: Please follow the leveling steps mentioned above and perform the leveling operation again.
¶ 3. When is leveling necessary?
1) Leveling is typically required once during the initial assembly of a new printer and will remain level for continuous printing.
2) Leveling is also necessary when printing failures occur, such as when the printed model does not adhere to the platform(or warping of the model edges) or when attempting to print multiple models simultaneously and some of them fail to print.
