Step 6 of 9 · Batch B00 — Calibration & jigs
(no image — see text)
Do:
- Slice, then Export G-code to USB or Send to printer.
- Start it, watch the first layer for 2–3 minutes.
- Gappy beads: long-press the knob, nudge Live Adjust Z, then find the cause before the next plate.
Check
First layer smooth, no gaps between beads, no ridging, and either no Live Adjust Z nudge or its cause written in the log.
Tip
expect 15–25 minutes of chamber heating before the purge (verify on bench), not in the 4.0 h. Paused or stopped: When the printer stops.
