CALIBRATING THE WIPE FUNCTION
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE OFFSET JETS MENU UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO DO SO BY CUBIFY
SUPPORT. CHANGES TO THESE SETTINGS WILL AFFECT PRINTER OUTPUT. CALIBRATION WAS PERFORMED
BY THE FACTORY AND ANY CHANGES TO THESE SETTINGS MUST BE GUIDED BY CUBIFY SUPPORT.
As the printer extrudes print material through the print jets, print material may sometimes adhere to the print jet tips. The printer
rmware moves the print jets over the jet wiper assembly blade to scrape excess print material from the print jets. If the setting for the
Wipe function is not properly set, the print jets may not reach the jet wiper assembly blade and the hardened excess print material may
be released into the next print.
The factory settings position the print jets about .25”/6.35 mm in front of the jet wiper assembly blade.
1. Browse to the Print Jet Calibration screen and select OFFSET JETS.
2. Press the Wipe value repeatedly to scroll through the digits. Press the up
arrow to move the print jets forward and the down arrow to move the print jets
backward.
NOTE: Increasing the value moves the print jets toward the front
of the printer. Decreasing the value moves the print jets toward the
back of the printer.
3. Select the checkmark to continue.
4. Print a small test le and verify the print jets move over the jet wiper assembly
blade after extruding print material.
TESTING THE PRINT JETS AND EXTRUDERS
When material fails to come out of the print jets during a print, you may receive a warning message on the display. The CONTROL
JETS function from the Print Jet Calibration menu is a utility that enables you to test the print jet heating elements and the extruder
operation.
1. Navigate to the Print Jet Calibration screen and select CONTROL JETS.
