6.3 Leveling the printbed
It is important to ensure that the printbed is completely leveled relative to the internal axes of your Corning® Matribot® Bioprinter.
1. Verify that the Corning Matribot Bioprinter is disconnected from the power outlet and your computer.
2. Insert an empty syringe with a nozzle into the printhead and manually push the printhead plunger to the lower limit of plunger travel.
3. Screw in all three adjustment screws under the bed tightly. Unscrew the adjustment screw to the back left (A) by approx. 2 turns.
4. Move the printbed and the printhead manually, until the tip of the nozzle touches the surface of the printbed in front of the
adjustment screw to the back left (A).
5. Leaving the printbed where it is, manually move the printhead until the nozzle is in front of the adjustment screw to the back right
(B). Adjust the butterfly screw until the nozzle touches the surface of the printbed.
6. Again, leaving the printbed where it is, move the printhead until the nozzle is right behind the front adjustment screw (C). Adjust the
butterfly screw until the nozzle touches the printbed.
