Calibration Pattern A calibration pattern is a test print designed to evaluate and fine-tune specific aspects of a 3D printer's performance, such as extrusion, bed leveling, or dimensional accuracy. Common patterns include temperature towers, retraction tests, and flow rate tests. These patterns help users identify the optimal settings for their printer and filament, reducing trial-and-error adjustments. Regular use of calibration patterns ensures consistent print quality and helps prevent common issues like stringing, warping, or over-extrusion. |
