Help with Bed Level Correct
Based on the image below can someone recommend a bed level correct setting? Please open image separately for full sized view. Note that the upper left rectangle looks fine from photo but viewing straight down shows same problem as seen in bottom and middle left, slight spacing between filament. Based on my viewpoint the top right and bottom right are almost perfect. Most others show slight spacing between filament. Does nozzle need to be closer to bed to squish the filament down more? Should I set left bed level correct to higher value, like 5 microns so the bed is raised and try again? Or is this someone other issue? I used Slic3r profile for gcode after adjusting filament size and temp. v2 calibration prints fine and it's a perfectly clean bed using alcohol to wipe down. I also reran xyz calibration right before.
Re: Help with Bed Level Correct
So I ended up setting live adjust Z to -.6, way lower than before going to 3.0.6. This made the rectangles at left be perfect. Then I eventually set bed level adjust to .1 for the right side and now all rectangles are uniformly set in terms of filament width. 2 issues. I would have thought the bed level adjustment would be based on bed height, i.e. .1 should raise the bed, thus resulting in being closer to the nozzle. In actuality, the value is based on nozzle height. Confusing. The manual should include mention of positive value in the example.
A minor point is that in the bed level adjust setting, the top text says "Settings" but it should say "Calibration".

Since the bed itself cannot be adjusted at all, everyone expects it will be understood as "adjusting Z axis height" thus moving the nozzle. 😎

It can be "virtually" adjusted however, hence the confusion. 🙂
