 ==Known Issues and Fixes==
 * '''IMPORTANT:''' OctoPrint will '''disconnect from Ultimaker 2''' if Ultimaker 1 is powered on. If you want to print on both (or will want to eventually), power both on before starting your print on Ultimaker 2
-*The large white zip tie around the extruder can block the tensioner (the black piece) from contacting the filament. Make sure the tensioner slides just behind the head of that zip tie.
+*Bed is really warped (higher up in the middle, lower down on the sides). Leveling the bed is unlikely to fix this. Manually adjust the Z-axis for the first layer until the filament is being laid down flat (not rounded). Turn the threaded rod counter-clockwise to lower, clockwise to raise.

-*the nozzle is old and will need replacement soon (parts from china in the mail, supposedly). Print more slowly if the prints are not coming out good. Avoid feeding the filament over 120% feed rate, this will clog the nozzle even more.
