Holy fuck, now I know why my very first printer (Anycubic Mega X) always had leveling issues. This is bed mesh of the glass plate.
#Anycubic quality I guess. 
At least with this upgrade the printer can now finally work around this.

I've got a really weird issue I need help with:
My modified 3D printer got a Z-Probe (BIQU Microprobe) for calibration. However, for some weird reason, it always falsely measures the left side of the print bed causing that side of prints to get this weird texture-related elephant foot while the right side lacks adhesion (and texture).
I do not understand why the probe would falsely measure on the left, but not the right. It's a classic i3 bedslinger.

TIL about openams, which lets you plug a Bambu AMS into a klipper printer.
Between this and the #BoxTurtle, the klipper plugin to run the anycubic color engine, and the venerable ERCF, #klipper folks are spoiled for choice.
I have no clue where either #Klipper or #PrusaSlicer takes those values from. Nowhere did I set 40mm/s speed or 3.4mm³/s max flow, the limits are set way higher everywhere…

Why is #klipper's estimated print time so wrong.

New to me: https://github.com/interias/RELAX
Relax is a #klipper macro that cools your bed to release the part from the bed then reheats the bed for a set period of time to allow the parts to destress, clearing up the white marks on the surface then cools fully down.
I would probably use TEMPERATURE_WAIT instead of M190 but it’s a simple enough macro to write yourself in your PRINT_END and the technique is something I’ll experiment with for my styrene printing.
Any DFU experts out there? I'm trying to get a Fysetc H36 toolhead board to go into DFU mode so I can flash katapult, but I can't seem to get it to register on my M8P/CB1 or on my X230 laptop...
I tried a couple cables and I do see a USB device come up on the machines, but resetting while holding BOOT0 doesn't get me anywhere.
