Calibrating the Load Cells
Load cells are sensors that measure the weight of the material containers and
the waste container in the printer. It is important that you periodically check that
the weight measurements are accurate to prevent unnecessary waste of printing
materials or printer malfunctions.
To calibrate load cells:
1. Start the Load Cell Calibration wizard from the
Options
menu.
2. In the following screen, select one or more load cells that you want to
calibrate.
