medium📝 Analysis Q7 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand nozzle crashing cause
Nozzle hitting bed means it is positioned too low, often due to incorrect Z-axis offset.Step 2: Identify correct option
'Z-axis offset is set too low' matches this; others relate to temperature, filament, or speed, unrelated to nozzle height.Final Answer:
Z-axis offset is set too low -> Option DQuick Check:
Nozzle crash = Z-axis offset too low [OK]
Quick Trick: Nozzle crash means Z offset too low [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Blaming bed temperature for nozzle crash
- Confusing filament diameter with nozzle height
- Assuming print speed causes nozzle crash
