Final Pre-Print Check - Recommendations
-
Am I missing anything before I start a test print?
I've run autolevel G32, brought the bed and hot end to temperature, checked endstops, checked the extruder.
I've autotuned the hot end and am about to auto tune the bed.
Is there a way to set the max bed temperature?
I used a 98C temperature fuse and wanted to lock it down just in case so no one ran it over 90C.Here are copies of my config and bed files and config-override with some autotune results (I still need to check the bed)
I lowered (halved) some of the motor movements so the printer was not quite as loud (if anyone has recommendations for a good sound / speed balance please post them).

Excellent.
I'm printing a Stanford Bunny right now.
I've gone from a Mini-Rambo Rostock Max v2 to this Duet WiFi Max Metal, it is indeed much quieter and smoother - plus the auto-leveling is a time-saver once you get it running.
