How can I tell?]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/50264/#p50264 My bed seems fairly messed up. At 2mm part of my bed has great distance from the head, but the other side leave no room. I've been playing around but to no avail. I thought I may have screwed down one side so hard that the plate deformed? But it seemed unlikely to me. This is not my printer and I really hope I did not break it. Are there any easy ways to calibrate or re-flatten the bed?

If the general consensus is the bed IS deformed, what would be the most tactful way to approach my employer?
