Movement, Heating, Extrusion
After rst connecting to your printer, you will be required to home all axes
before you are allowed to manually move parts of the printer. This is to

boxes labeled Move Length, Select Extruder, Extrusion Amount, and Select
Temperature.

• Extrusion Amount Input the amount of lament you would like fed
