Yes, I calibrated It, the steps per mm were exactly the same as the equation.
.200*16 steps/rotation
25.4mm/rotation
200*16/25.4=125.98425196850393700787401574803 steps/mm
The cube printed out relatively well as you can see from the photos, the dimensions were close although there is a small deformity as you can see in the photos.
The cylinder on the other hand printed as expected , and is nowhere close to a cylinder.
As far as the printer goes it still is not totally tuned up ,there's a fair bit of backlash on the 7/16 screws and some of the joints need a little attention. But I think this was good demonstration for out of the gate.
