The speaker encountered calibration issues and nozzle height problems during testing but notes that firmware updates have addressed such issues. The pre-loaded files on the printer initially had a bed temperature of 35°, which was insufficient, although newer models will come with improved gold Pi build plates and additional pre-loaded files with higher bed temps. The process of changing filament on the printer is a point of discussion, as it did not retract as expected but started feeding filament instead.
