With regard to the calibration of the textured plate, I do suggest to then use the SoftFever Fork of Studio, which does offer a calibration, also for the textured plate and also offers PA/LA measurement and you can insert the numbers into the slicer. In both cases you know for sure that the numbers are established and used in the slicer for printing.
Hi Ciprian,
just an idea of me to this topic. Whats about an textured pei plate with a smoth surface in the front for calibration. The Lidar Feature is great, but the surface of txt pei prints and the detachability is also.
I am aware of the smaler printspace but for smal and mid size prints, that would be a great compromise.
The plate is produced by electrostatically charging it, coating it with PEI powder and baking it. Skipping an area should be doable.
⌠or we could try scraping the PEI in the calibration area off ourselves and testing, but then you run into a problem if your filament doesnât stick in there anymore and you lose part of the bed for large prints. I guess Iâll try that if I even damage my plate, unless someone does it first 
I donât know whatâs going on with these problems with double textured PEI, I put in, lidar scans, sets PA or other and works correctly whether PLA or PETG.
The claim is that the calibration appears to work but may deliver inaccurate results. I havenât seen evidence of this, but I also have no way of verifying.

This is true for all plates. WE just donât know whether it does work or not. No evidence shown anywhere. This is why rely on SoftFeverâs work and do it manually.
Yes of course, the bambu lab itself says it may not be accurate. But it just works, different filaments and prints come out perfect. So it just works. ((I do not use any additional LED lights that could, for example, reflect off the PEI surface)
Update works fantastic for my requirements
Iâm looking forward to more updates in the future
