 Use your slicer to create a primitive object, a cube, and slice it with your test slicer settings and try to print it.
+=== Next Steps ===
-==== Should you update the "firmware" ====
+Learn to use [[Orca Slicer]]
-No. < discuss >
+Perform [[Orca Calibrations]] to build a [[filament profile]] for the specific filament you will be using. These filament profiles will vary between material (PLA, PETG, TPU, ASA, ABS, ...), type (standard, high speed, high temp, plus, "silk", matte, ...), brand and even color.
+==== Notes ====
+Do not tighten or adjust the lock nuts for the lead screw couplers to the gantry. They are set at the factory (lock nuts) and need to be loose. Adjusting lock nuts damages them.
