Hi All first post.
I received my Saturn 3 Ultra 12K yesterday with much excitement. This is my fourth resin printer. Original Photon > Phrozen Sonic Mini > AnyCubic MonoX > Saturn 3 Ultra 12K
I know this is a fairly new product and probably not a lot of user experience yet but nothing but struggles so far.
The network feature does not work, gave up on that. #1 reason I bought this over the standard Saturn 3.
Bigger issue: Cannot reset Z=0 no matter how many times I go through the levelling process and follow the instructions to go back a page and hit Z=0 once the paper is snug to liking. If I go back to home it just resets home right back to where it was out of the box which is too much of a gap.
So as a workaround I loosened all the screws and placed a couple pieces of paper and then held it down and tightened again. Since I'm stuck with the out of the box Z=0 value I'm hoping this works.
First test / validation print going right now but I'm not having too high hopes as I've failed about 15 attempts yesterday
Looking online there is a lot of others that seem to complain about the resetting z=0 not doing anything even on earlier Elegoo printers and making me really second guess this purchase.
What I did ended up working
Actually the best validation print I think I've ever done... now leave it alone.
Going to try a real print now.
Just strange Z=0 would not reset like my other printers and the manual.
