I just fired up my Form1+ for the first time today.
Is it normal that only one side of the resin tray lowers? Or “dips” to the right?
My first attempt at a sample print produced no results or even any recognizable cured objects.
Any info would be helpful- thanks all!

Yes, that it absolutely normal. That is the “peel” process.
I know the urge to “play” is strong, but do a couple of hours of reading (this support forum is fantastic!), it will save you money and speed your learning curve.
Hint for you: make sure you strain your resin and scrape your tray clean before you attempt another model. I guarantee there is “stuff” lurking in there that you can’t even see.
Here’s my procedure/checklist for printing… I wish I had this when I first got my printer, my success rate would have been better.
If you run your spatula flat across surface of the bottom of your tank is there cured material stuck to it or floating around in your resin?
If not: Your laser is not firing, contact support.
If so: Your tray is to low and the print isn’t adhering, this can be accommodated for by adjusting the Platform Height setting in the Fine Tuning dialog.
