    The outline on the glass is meaningless.
    Confusing and meaningless :)

    Ignore it.

    The Robo company likes to think outside of the box, so they made a box on the printed bed that illustrates their philosophy. Like mark said...meaningless. Haha

    Also don't freak out when you find that your 10"x9" build area is being heated by an 8"x8" heat pad. So if you print ABS it might lift at the extreme edges.

    I have had PLA large prints lift at the point they were not directly over the 8x8 heater......verified with IR Thermometer......rotating the print 45 degrees, cured the lifted corners, all other settings remaining the same.
