Satin sheet I cannot calibrate I have hit the -2.0 limit..
Just got my Satin sheet but I cant lower the print head low enough I have gaps in the calibration print.
Im at -2.0, anyway to make this now lower?
My smooth sheet is -1.840 and it seem the satin sheet is a tad thinner.
Anyone else hit this -2.0 limit?
Best Answer by Technical Ted:
On my Mk3S+ you can raise the Super PINDA sensor a little bit and that will lower all Z settings. You'll have to re-calibrate all your stored sheets though. When I built my kit a few weeks ago they instruct to set the initial height of the Pinda with the thickness of one of the small zip ties they send you. Adjust from there if needed.

You are spot on I just did chat with support they said use zip ties, credit card was a bit too thin 🙂

The old PINDA was supposed to be about 0.8-1mm from the steel sheet, the SPINDA needs 1.5 mm. I don't think what's in the assembly instruction is correct anymore. A zip tie is about 0.8 mm, and unless you use an Amex Platinum, I don't think a standard CC is thick enough.
I created this little gadget, in collaboration with @with_maltodextrin, to get the distance right: https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/57192. Just used it this afternoon when I upgraded one of my machines to Mk3S+.

Nice I printed said calibration tool, used it and now I have it working as it should. Its for sure not a credit card width.

Here is another fine PINDA/SPINDA/MINDA calibration tool https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/57049-lehre-fur-pindaspinda suitable for the Mini and the MKx series.
Statt zu klagen, dass wir nicht alles haben, was wir wollen, sollten wir lieber dankbar sein, dass wir nicht alles bekommen, was wir verdienen.
