• Make sure the print jet is clean. For cleaning instructions, see ‘MAINTAINING YOUR CUBEX > Cleaning the Print Jet’).
• Starting with a gap between the Print Pad and the print jet, move the Print Pad towards the print jet using the up (+) “SET
Z HEIGHT” touchscreen. Observe the Print Pad as it approaches the print jet.
• Stop raising the Print Pad as soon as the print jet touches the Print Pad’s surface. If the Print Pad goes too far, simply
move the Print Pad back and repeat the approach.
• Lower the Print Pad by 0.1 to produce a large enough Z gap for printing.
CAUTION: IF THE PRINT JET PUSHES AGAINST THE PRINT PAD TOO HARD, THE PRINT JET WILL BE
FORCED INTO THE PRINT PAD FOR THE ENTIRE FIRST LAYER OF PRINTING. THIS WILL DAMAGE
BOTH THE PRINT PAD AND THE PRINT JET. MAKE SURE THE PRINT PAD SPRINGS ARE NOT
COMPROMISED WHEN SETTING THE PRINT JET AGAINST THE PRINT PAD.
• Clicking the ‘Function’ button gives the option to save the gap setting to the printer’s memory, which will be retained even
after the printer is powered off. This Z gap value will be applied for each subsequent print.
