Bed level correction.
For example, if the first layer seems to be
ever so slightly more squished on the right side, you can virtually raise the nozzle by
+20
microns on the right side. Settings are available for Left, Right, Front and Back. The limit is
+-100 microns and even +-20 microns can make a huge difference. When you are using this
function, perform small incremental changes. A negative value will cause the bed to lower in
the selected direction.
