Auto Leveling & Z-Offset

The V3 probes the bed with the nozzle through a strain-gauge sensor and builds a mesh automatically.

  • Re-run leveling after moving the printer or changing the plate.
  • Clean the nozzle tip first — stuck plastic ruins the measurement.
  • Fine-tune Z-offset in 0.02 mm steps during the first layer until lines are slightly flattened and touch each other.

For adhesion problems that leveling does not fix, see Bed Adhesion Techniques.
