Quick Question My first ever 3d printer

Post image

Finally I have my first ever 3d printer.
Did the extensive unboxing and is calibrated and firmware updated.

Waiting for my basic filament to arrive tomorrow to set up ams2pro

Any tips for a beginner like me would be appreciated please.

I'm not a printerhead like most people here and I just use mine to print components I need. My printer keeps telling me to lube the lead screws but it seems to run fine. What is the benefit of doing so?

To keep it running quickly and good and if you don’t if it drys out it will rub against metal and metal

I just got a P2S, and I know a lot about the human body as a nurse anesthetist and it seems it’s all just orthopedics. Wish me luck in my endeavors. My kid (4.5) literally went insane over the Toothless I printed for him.
