First launch the App 3dStarApp on your computer and in the menu “3dStarApp” > “Preferences”.
Click on “Machine”:
Then click on “Machine Calibration”.
You can now follow the first steps of the Einstart 3D printer user manual v2.1:
- Click “Home” to move z axis to home position.
- Click “o” to move the extrude nozzle to the platform center
And then the user manual is wrong: you shouldn’t click on but instead, you have to click on
to make the platform goes up. Yes, clicking on the bottom arrow to go up is counterintuitive, but this is the way to go.
If Move Mode is on “Sequent”, you need to keep clicking on the to make it continuously go up, near the extrude nozzle. And when you are close to the extrude nozzle, put a A4 paper on the platform, and switch to “Aptotic” mode. Then each time you click on
, it will go up by 0,20mm. Repeat until you cannot remove the A4 paper, and then click on
to obtain a à,20mm distance between the extrude nozzle and the platform.
Now you can click on to set the offset.
You are all set, you can close the windows.
