Member Reports

  • The evolution of the Lulzbot TAZ 1.0 continues apace: EEPROM settings have been enabled, which means that the machine is now both capable of reporting on a lot of its current settings, and storing some settings without recompiling and re-uploading the entire firmware. However, the calibration of the Z axis (steps per millimeter) is still an arcane, occult, dark art. -- Ubuntourist
