Desiree’s First 3D Print

Despite the title, it actually took me a few test prints to get the final print right. I received my printer fairly quickly so I decided to assemble it immediately after, only using the instructions that it came with (they were extremely difficult to follow). The first issue I encountered was an error when attempting to auto home for the first time. After watching the video that was provided to us, I discovered that I installed the x-axis belt incorrectly – the teeth were facing outward. Once the belt was fixed, my first two prints came out very deformed. Initially I thought it was a bed-leveling problem, but after doing some research, I figured out that tightening the x-axis belt was the solution I needed. That being said, everything was fixed by adjusting the x-axis in some way. After these modifications, I was finally able to get the perfect print.
