== How Does It Work? ==

<center>This video shows how the Z axis is constantly moving to keep the part on the bed.</center>
Print Leveling allows MatterControl to figure out the tilt or angle of the bed. Using this information when printing, MatterControl actively raises and lowers the Z axis to make that the printed part matches the tilt bed and will always remain correctly above it. This process ensures that the print remains level regardless of the unevenness of the bed.

<center>Here, even with a ridiculously uneven bed, the Automatic Bed Leveling feature ensures that the print will still be perfectly upright.</center>
Print Leveling does not directly change anything about your printer or your print files. It simply allows for the correction of an uneven bed to be compensated for during printing. If for some reason your bed gets uneven, Print Leveling can compensate for it by adjusting the Z axis as you print. This should work for all source files that your printer can use.
