Levelling a Voron 0 without a probe

BED_SCREWS_ADJUST with paper, then a thin cube and live Z until the first layer is right.

Bed must be HOT as typical temperature; I use 105C for bed for ABS/ASA.

  1. Perform a probe calibrate and get medium to light friction by stepping down to the print bed, then save_config after accepting.
  2. Perform a BED_SCREWS_ADJUST with paper and get medium to light friction on each of the 3 probe points on the bed. If you have to turn the screw for any probe point more than 1/4 of a turn then select adjusted, else accept.
  3. Perform another probe_calibrate with paper for medium to light friction.
  4. In your favourite slicer, e.g. orca slicer, create a cube primitive (a standard cube, not a voron cube which is shaped differently), scale it to match most of the size of the bed with uniform scaling.
  5. Turn off uniform scaling and set z mm setting to 0.24mm.
  6. Slice that print.
  7. Send it to your printer and print it.
  8. Live adjust z while printing to get the best level you can.
  9. You may need to do step 7 multiple times, potentially 8 as well with adjustments to your bed screws as appropriate.
  10. Once you have a lovely first layer you are now ready to print.
