should already be done
XYZ steps/mm set to calculated values calculator
if that doesn't work config axes
things to keep in mind
plastic shrinks as it cools down. this should be compensated for by the model, not by the printer
belts and fasteners loosen over time. make sure they're tight and check again if problems appear later
before printing
motor current (correct stepper motor current)
axes (all axes parallel/perpendicular)
bed surface (ensure proper plastic adhesion)
bed level (extruder the same height at all points on bed)
extruder temperature
E steps/mm commissioning
now you can print
layer height (adjust by .01 till beautiful)
infill (1.0 solid cube)
perimeter width (nesting blocks)
ooze control
bridging
overhang
