With the __NOTOC__{{DISPLAYTITLE:EEProm Settings you can adjust many of the settings that your printer uses by default}}[[File:EEProm1. MatterControl can set png|right|framed|<center>Example '''EEProm ''' settings for both from a Lulzbot TAZ 6 running Marlin and Repetier firmware1.0.2</center>]]
[[File:Eeprom1.png|right|frame|MatterControl supports interacting with EEPROM settings can be found under as allowed by the Configuration tab]]firmware-- Marlin and Repetier only.
The settings window '''EEPROM''' stands for Marlin firmware'Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory' and can also be written, 'EEPROM'. EEPROM is memory on the printer's circuit board which stores a series of values for certain settings. These values usually relate to the specific printer's geometric, physical, and operative functions and statistics.

==== Setting The Steps Per mm ====MatterControl supports EEProm for only Marlin and Repetier firmwares.
This is a great way to fix problems you have with you printer not moving the distance you expect, or having your parts come out with incorrect dimensions*Marlin firmware EEProm documentation: https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/wiki/EEPROM*Repetier firmware EEProm documentation: http://www.repetier.com/documentation/repetier-firmware/rf-installation/

==== Equation ====For an example of how to use the EEProm window to adjust the printer's [[steps per mm]], check out this page: [[Setting Steps per mm]]
Here is the equation you can use to find correct values:== Interface ==
<code>Desired_Steps_Per_mm = Actual_Steps_Per_mm * Current_Steps_Per_mm / Desired_Distance</code>== Reset to Factory Defaults ===
So if This will reset all settings to your x was set firmware's defaults. === Save to 80 and you only moved 97mm when trying EEProm === Saves any applicable changes made using the interface to move 100mm, you would put in 97 * 80 / 100the EEPROM on the printer.And set === Import... === Import .ini files containing EEPROM configuration.
