The machine will now measure 3 points on the bed, after that we need to map the bed itself for any bumps still present. We do
this with G33.

Bed leveling: This tilts the bed in the software so the distance between nozzle and bed is the same everywhere. When to do
this?:
1. After unboxing/moving printer.
2. When you see first layer printed lines are deviating from width across the print surface.

We already leveled the bed in the previous step so you don’t need to do this, we do need to calibrate the Z and the XY.
XY and Z Nozzle calibration: These calibrations align the printheads with respect to each other to get an optimal dual head print.
When to do this?
1. After exchanging a hot-end
2. When you clearly see that during dual head printing the nozzles are not aligned in x,y or height.
After that you’re good to go!
