- Use OctoPrint on [1]
Build Plate & Adhesion
- **Carborundum Glass Bed:** This printer uses a textured glass bed (does NOT flex like the Prusa spring steel sheets)
- **STRICT SHOP RULE:** **ABSOLUTELY NO razor blades, sandpaper, or metal scrapers on this bed!** Metal tools will permanently destroy the micro-porous glass coating
- **NO adhesives allowed:** No glue sticks, blue tape, hairspray, or ABS slurry
- Clean bed ONLY with Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and a lint-free wipe when the bed is room temperature
- **Print Removal:** Allow the bed to cool completely to room temperature before removing prints. The plastic will naturally release as the glass cools.
- Use only soft plastic tools or fingernails if assistance is needed
Operation & Printing
- **Large Bed Warm-Up:** The massive 400x400mm bed takes longer to reach temperature than smaller printers. Allow extra time for thermal equalization
- **Clearance:** Keep the area behind and in front of the printer clear—the bed travels far along the Y-axis during prints
- LeviQ auto-bed leveling is active; always monitor the first 2–3 layers to confirm proper Z-offset and first-layer adhesion
- Unload filament when print job is complete
