Comment on Why does my printer suck so much?
GingeyBook@lemm.ee 7 months agoI have the bed and nozzle when calibrating z offset and bed tramming and auto bed leveling.
What’s the correct way for each of those?

When you’re calibrating X-offset you’re noting the difference between the probe and the nozzle.
So for that you want the nozzle heated but not the bed. Not that it hurts to have the bed heated. It’s just not needed.
Because the way you get the z offset is to find the point where probe triggers… and then find where the nozzle touches that same point.
For bed tramming you’ll want the bed heated. Although unless it’s badly warped you can get by without it and ABL should account for that anyway. What you want here is for the nozzle to be the same distance from the bed when it moves over it.
