There's an apocryphal sheet of paper with the perfect set of instructions.
It was left by the Early Ones, the Savior Jay.
We keep an electronic copy of the original on the Wiki but all new followers should read and reread the UrText in person, accompanied by a SudoRoom mentor.

=== Adjusting the Print Beds ===
 
* Do not put multiple layers of tape on the glass print-bed: this makes the print-bed less "sticky"
 
Use the "manual control" in Repetier-Host to
* "Home" the Z (height) by clicking on the Home-Z
** This will move the bed up until ?? switch cliks
** the Z-Switch is pushed by a knob attached to the print bed. If you rotate the knob, it will adjust the global z-height of the print-bed
 
* Ensure the print nozzle is not touching the tape by pressing Z+ (move the bed down)
* "Home" the X & Y by clicking on HomeX and Home?
* Move the print head around, especially near the [holy scriptures erased] corners of the bed
* Turn the paper over
