 From this formula we can calculate the new steps/mm by plugging in the values: From this formula we can calculate the new steps/mm by plugging in the values:
  
-<code> 
-(new steps) = ( 100 / 102.09 ) * 90

 **NOTE**: This setting will not persist! You will have to either set the setting in the EEPROM (through printer menus) or in ''configuration.h''. The purpose of saving the setting like this, is to redo the calibration and test that it is accurate. **NOTE**: This setting will not persist!
