Partially Successful Print
Incorrect Home position/parallelism
The printer is completely calibrated and tested during fabrication. However, in rare cases, the calibration needs to be carried out by the printer owner to guarantee uniformly accurate build results.
Perform the Home position calibration. To do that:
1. On the Home screen of your printer, select Settings > Move & Calibration > Home Calibration.
2. Proceed with Home Position Calibration Einstein Pro XL.
3. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
Incorrect material handling
Incorrect handling of materials can cause poor surface quality. To avoid this:
1. Make sure you prepare your materials properly for printing, see Add Material to Material Tray for details.
2. Refer to Maintain Materials to make sure you maintain your material correctly.
3. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
Expired or damaged material tray
The material tray is consumable with an approximate lifespan of up to 90 prints.
To ensure the quality of printed models, order a new material tray before the current tray expires or becomes damaged. You can check the replacement signs on the Clean Material Tray page.
Also, avoid potential material contamination. Cleaners or water are not allowed in the material tray. To avoid total contamination of a bottle, have a separate bottle to pour the material into when you aren’t using it so you don’t pour it back into the fresh bottle of material.
Only the supports adhered to the build platform. Possible reasons:
Inadequate supports
Correct support generation is crucial for a high-quality print. There are two ways to generate the supports in Envision One RP software:
1. Make sure you generate supports correctly referring to the links above.
2. If the supports were generated correctly and the part still has issues sticking to the support, either increase the tip thickness or add more supports. You can add more supports or increase the beam spacing manually so all the supports are closer together.
3. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
The surface quality of the models is poor. Possible reasons:
Incorrect material handling

2. Refer to Maintain Materials to make sure you maintain your material correctly.
3. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
Inappropriate conditions of the printer operation area
Correct environmental conditions are crucial for high-quality print.
1. Make sure you created the perfect working conditions for your printer. Refer to Environmental Conditions Einstein Pro XL for details.
2. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
Wrong or corrupted STL file
The Envision One RP software takes print files and prepares them for transfer to the printer. Everything that is printed using the Envision One must pass through this software successfully.
1. Make sure the file you want to print meets all the requirements in Envision One RP.
2. If the problem persists, please contact Service & Support.
Failed Print
Layers of the models detached from the build platform and stuck to the surface of the material tray. Possible reasons:
