How do you level the 2 hot end in z-direction?

Hello,
On the website you say: “Easy-swap Hot Ends. Loosen the two screws on the hot end, fix or replace the hot end, and go back to printing at once.”
Can you tell me HOW you ensure the levelling of the two hot ends in the Z-direction?
Yours,
Lex.

Having just gone through this process, I think I can explain. The left extruder is fixed in the Z direction, and the right extruder has a height adjustment. There is a calibration where both extruders touch off the same conductor on the bed, and the right extruder is adjusted to match the Z of the left.

I think their quote above should have read - “Easy-swap Hot Ends. Loosen the two screws on the hot end, fix or replace the hot end, run the calibration sequence, and go back to printing at once.”
