Move Extruder For Packaging

Hi,

   I want to repackage my printer in the original styrofoam and box.

HOW..... can I move the extruder into place - specifically the Z axis or "up and down" - to put the original styrofoam in place?  I can't find anything in the menu.

(I fully realize that I can manually, by hand move the extruder along the x-axis); but how to move it up /down?

Thanks

AJ

Once the stepper motors are disabled in the menu you could screw the lead screws by hand as well I believe.

On a MK3 you can press and hold the control knob button in and it will access the z height (as long as its been homed previously).  Its the quick way to dial the height up and down.
