I have a Sidkick 747 printer that I just got. My understanding from the user docs is that bed leveling will be done using 16 data points. My machine only checks 9 data points. Is there something I need to do, or is this normal and there is something else that I dont understand?

Hello,

A few month ago we moved from the 4x4 grid to a 3x3 grid for leveling.  
We had found no real added benefit to the extra point and the time saved when leveling is something many users found more useful.

So you should be good to go!
