Offsets for extruder T1
The XY calibration prepares the machine for dual extrusion. The calibration must
be done by the user after replacing the extruder or hotend and after any reloca-
tion of the printer. It can also be done if a wrong offset between the nozzles is
recognized while using dual extrusion.

Step 1: Calculate the offsets with a resolution of 0.5mm
– Print the g-code
resolution of 0.5mm
– When the print is finished, DO NOT TAKE IT OFF THE BED.
– Identify the offsets. The shapes printed with Extruders 1 and 2 should
just match in one point. Identify the point in which they match and
write down the offset using the template below.
– Go to the Advanced Menu, update the offsets and save
