How to calibrate your HevORT… or any other printer!

1. Calibrate the Extruder step / mm.
2. Perform PID tune of the Hot End and the bed. You may want to create various PID tune profiles. Since each material have their preferred printing temperatures and fan settings, I like to store the PID results into the filament configuration file of my Duet.
3. Calibrate the flow of your extruder/nozzle. How much material is required to achieve the desired extrusion line width.
4. Calibrate pressure advance for the targeted print speed
5. Identify ideal temperature for material/targeted speed
6. Determine Ideal retraction setting
