    SET Z AXIS Explanation
    HGT (Default settings) The lowest position on the Z axis is used for the origin (0 mm), and the distance up along the axis from the origin is displayed as HGT (the height).
    THK

    The highest position on the Z axis is used for the origin (0 mm), and the distance down along the axis from the origin is displayed as THK (the thickness).

    The value displayed as THK takes into account items such as the height of the flat table. Therefore, the displayed value may differ from the actual thickness of the object to be printed on.
