This guide won’t touch generic print calibration or any other print settings, you can follow my guide on best calibration settings order as you need a perfectly tuned printer to be able to print such small and precise things, especially with a larger size nozzle (mine is .6mm, i bet some keycaps can be printed on .8mm with a few more tweaks).

The premise If you want to follow this guide you just need a Klipper based printer and your small UPS (or even a bigger one that triggers it’s safety features when all printers are going at the same time) ...
