Print it. After print finishes. Mark the X and y axis sides so you don't get them mixed up. Measure them. Figure the percentage difference from 100mm. Change your steps for each axis accordingly. Rinse and repeat till they come out correct. Then you can do the same for z axis.

I just finished my first print that I let run all the way on my workbench apprentice. I believe that I have my extruder calibrated decently. The first few layers are a little dicey - I think my extruder may have caught some of the glue which caused it to get messy, may be over extrusion though. Anyways - My 20mm cube print seems to be rectangular on my x axis and I am curious as to what process I can run through to ensure that my X and Y movements are calibrated?

Greatly appreciated,
Brendan
