I need help levelling my k1 printer bed, I’ve no idea what to do and my bed has about a 1mm range. It has moonraker and fluidd etc from the k1 root along with some extra things installed. But again, I can’t get the bed level and I don’t know how to. If anyone can help I would be greatly appreciative

AI Help

To level your k1 printer bed with a 1mm range, follow these steps:

Home the printer.
Use a sheet of paper or a feeler gauge to adjust the distance between the nozzle and the bed. Turn the leveling screws under the bed to move the bed closer or further from the nozzle until you feel slight resistance when moving the paper under the nozzle.
Repeat the process for all corners and the center of the bed, adjusting the bed height as needed.
You can also adjust the bed leveling settings in your firmware or slicer software for finer adjustments.

If you are still having trouble, it may be helpful to check for any loose parts or issues with the printer's hardware that could be affecting the bed leveling process.
