The PEI plate is being returned as defective - it doesn't work on my other printers, either. I've ordered a new stock mat that will hopefully correct any of the weird leveling issues I've had.

## Problems?
|
||||
### Non-functional/detrimental bed meshes
|
||||
Bed meshes don't seem to work properly. I can get wildly different bed meshes without ever moving or adjusting anything on the machine, leading me to believe that the BL-Touch probe might have some issues (or may not be a genuine part, I'm not certain.) It might be worth looking into something else for Z probing.

Bed meshing was working, it's just that I'm unused to sprung beds. Enabling adaptive meshing with KAMP has resolved this issue.

Be sure to home (<code>G28</code>) before performing the <code>BED_MESH_CALIBRATE</code>; it's also important to run <code>M117</code> to clear any messages hanging up in the system. <code>LINE_PURGE</code> needs to come *after* <code>START_PRINT</code> to make sure it happens **immediately** before the print begins to minimize blobbing and stringing on the first layer.

If you are just importing the PrusaSlicer profile, these changes to the START G-Code should already be applied.

# Tuning

## Z Offset
|

|
||||
|
||||
**NOTE:** I've hda to re-adjust the Z offset fairly frequently, sometimes between each print. It's not a large task, but I'm unsure if there's an issue with either the probe or the bed screws or the bed itself - just do not rely on this to be accurate over a large amount of time!
|
||||
|
||||
Home all axes and then enter <code>PROBE_CALIBRATE</code> into the command line. From there, adjust the Z offset in small increments using the on-screen arrows until it is close enough to the bed that you feel resistance when you drag a sheet of paper below it. You just need to feel enough drag to be noticable - it doesn't need to put up resistance

## Bed Mesh Calibration
|
||||
[Official documentation link](https://www.klipper3d.org/Bed_Mesh.html)
|
||||
|
||||
**NOTE:** I'm not certain this is 100% necessary as this unit appears to have a pretty dang flat bed; my results have not been much different when using a bed mesh. I feel that the BL Touch probe installed is either wonky or inaccurate. If and when I switch this machine over to hard mounts, this may be a more important set.
|
||||
Bed meshing is now handled automatically on every print by KAMP. It creates a smaller mesh of only the area you'll be printing on, meaning they are **much** more accurate.
|
||||
|
||||
## ...and the rest.
|
||||
These are things that need to be set up but not done as frequently.
