In the above example, this tells the printer that, after being initialized, and when a
print job begins, the platform is 139.5mm away from the nozzle.
To figure out the correct nozzle distance, please follow these steps:
1 - Open the ―Maintain‖ dialogue box from the ―3D Print‖ menu. The current nozzle
height is indicated as shown in the picture below.
(Windows version)
(Mac version)
2 - In the text box, type in the height to which you want the platform to move to, and
click the ―To‖ button. In the above example, the platform would move to 124mm
above the platform‘s origin.
3 - Check the distance between the nozzle and the platform. If, for example, the
platform appears to be about 7mm away from the nozzle, increase the number in
the text box to 130 and click the ―To‖ button. Note that we have only increased the
number by 3mm instead of 4mm. The reason for this is that we do not want to
crash the platform into the nozzle, so we want to increase the height in smaller and
smaller increments as we get closer to the nozzle.
