A Klipper firmware plugin that automatically calibrates the Z-offset of a 3D printer before every print, eliminating manual baby-stepping. It ensures a perfect first layer regardless of nozzle changes or new flex plates.

Use cases

  • automatically calibrate z-offset on klipper 3d printer
  • get perfect first layer without manual baby stepping
  • auto z-offset calibration after changing nozzle
  • self-calibrate probe offset on voron printer
  • avoid first layer adhesion problems on 3d prints

When to choose

  • you run Klipper firmware and want automatic z-offset calibration before each print
  • you frequently swap nozzles or build plates and need consistent first layers
  • you have a Voron or similar printer with an inductive or magnetic probe

When to avoid

  • your printer does not run Klipper firmware
  • you have no Z endstop or probe hardware the plugin can reference
  • you prefer manual first-layer tuning or use a different firmware like Marlin or RRF
