Z max change (MAX Z SET) LINE 4.0 and later
February 27, 2024
The procedure for changing the Z max depends on the machine version and firmware.
REMEMBER THAT THIS VALUE IS AUTOMATICALLY SAVED DURING THE SELF-CALIBRATION PROCEDURE, SO IT IS NOT NORMALLY NECESSARY TO CHANGE IT MANUALLY
- Clean the build bed and nozzle.
- Move the printer to the zero position (autohome)
- Use the Prepare –> Modify height (or Set Z max) command
The screen allows you to choose a scale value at the top (between 100 mm, 10 mm, 1 mm, 0.1 mm) and consequently go down or up that value on the Z axis.
- With a scale value of 100, click on the -Z arrow, lowering the nozzle to about 20 cm from the print bed.
- Select the scale value at 10 mm
- With a scale value of 10, click on the -Z arrow, lowering the nozzle to about 2 cm from the print bed.
- Select the scale value at 1 mm
- With a scale value of 1, click on the -Z arrow, lowering the nozzle to about 2 mm from the print bed.
- Select the scale value to 0.1 mm
- With a scale value of 0.1, click on the -Z arrow, lowering the nozzle until a sheet of paper is placed between it and the table and you feel a slight friction.
- Click the SET Z MAX button to save the new value or CANCEL to cancel the operation
