Before each print
Check build surface, filament path, nozzle cleanliness, first-layer preview, and whether the correct profile/material is loaded.
3D Printer Care Calendar
Reliable printing comes from predictable maintenance. Use this schedule to prevent clogs, adhesion drift, loose belts, resin contamination, bed leveling problems, and random quality failures.
Weekly
Inspect belts, wheels/rails, fans, lead screws, bed fasteners, spool path, and residue on the bed.
Monthly
Review calibration, slicer profile drift, nozzle wear, firmware changes, and recurring failure notes.
