3. സജ്ജീകരണവും ആദ്യ ഉപയോഗവും
Proper setup is crucial for successful 3D printing. Follow these steps before your first print.
3.1 Initial Power On and Voltagഇ പരിശോധിക്കുക:
Before powering on, ensure the voltage switch on the printer's power supply matches your local voltage (115V അല്ലെങ്കിൽ 230V). തെറ്റായ വോളിയംtage can damage the printer.
3.2 Bed Leveling:
The Neptune 4 Plus features both auxiliary and automatic bed leveling. For the first print, perform both to ensure optimal adhesion and print quality.
Video 2: Step-by-step guide on performing bed leveling for Neptune 4 Plus/4 Max.
3.3 Z-axis Compensation Fine-tuning:
Fine-tuning the Z-axis compensation value is critical for achieving a perfect first layer. Adjust this setting during the initial layers of a print to ensure proper adhesion and filament extrusion.
Video 3: Tutorial on fine-tuning the Z-axis compensation value for optimal first layer printing.
3.4 Filament Loading:
To load filament, first straighten the end of the filament to facilitate passage through the filament sensor and extruder. Insert the filament into the sensor, then into the extruder until it is gripped by the gears. Use the touch screen interface to initiate the loading process, heating the nozzle and extruding filament until it flows smoothly.
4. Operating Your Printer
Once set up, you can begin printing your 3D models. The Neptune 4 Plus offers high-speed and high-quality printing capabilities.
4.1 Printing Process:
Transfer your sliced G-code file to the printer via USB, WIFI, or LAN. Select the file from the touch screen interface and confirm to start printing. Monitor the first layer to ensure proper adhesion and adjust Z-offset if necessary.

5.1 Nozzle Oozing Cleaning:
If you notice filament oozing around the nozzle, it's important to clean it to prevent print failures and damage. Ensure the nozzle is heated before cleaning to soften any hardened filament.

5.2 Belt Tension Adjustment:
Loose belts can lead to layer shifting and poor print quality. Regularly check and adjust the tension of the X and Y-axis belts using the provided knobs until they have proper elasticity.
Video 8: This video demonstrates how to adjust the eccentric nuts and belt tension if the printing platform or belts are loose.

പ്രവർത്തന സമയത്ത് നിങ്ങൾ നേരിട്ടേക്കാവുന്ന സാധാരണ പ്രശ്നങ്ങളെ ഈ വിഭാഗം അഭിസംബോധന ചെയ്യുന്നു.
6.1 First Layer Adhesion Issues:
- Nozzle too far from bed: Adjust Z-axis compensation downwards (refer to Video 3).
- Nozzle too close to bed: Adjust Z-axis compensation upwards (refer to Video 3).
- Uneven bed: Re-level the bed using both auxiliary and automatic leveling (refer to Video 2).
6.2 പ്രിന്റ് ഗുണനിലവാര പ്രശ്നങ്ങൾ:
- ലെയർ ഷിഫ്റ്റിംഗ്: Check and tighten X and Y-axis belts (refer to Video 8). Ensure the printer is on a stable surface.
- Clogging/Under-extrusion: Clean the nozzle (refer to Video 7). Check filament path for obstructions.
- Over-extrusion: Adjust flow rate in your slicer software.
