2.2 Z-OFFSET calibration

From Mainsail

From the dashboard, switch to the Console section. Run command G28 to reposition the head on its origin point. You can run the G28 command by clicking on the Home button

Zoffset

Run command:

G28
PROBE_CALIBRATE
Carry out the adjustment with the sheet of paper. Make sure that the nozzle is clean and clear of any filament residue which could distort measurements. Now you need to set the Z position using the TESTZ command. The principle is simple: you need to gradually lower your nozzle to perfectly adjust the height between your platen and the nozzle. Position a sheet of paper and use the interface to raise or lower the Z.

Once the head is correctly set, run the ACCEPT command and then

SAVE_CONFIG
Mainsail will restart and your configuration will be saved. Change the G28 command to reposition the head at its origin point
