    Abstract: In an example implementation, a method of compensating for dimensional variation in 3D printing includes receiving a 3D object model that represents a 3D part to be printed. The method also includes receiving a build material type and a position for printing the 3D part within a build volume. The method includes determining from the position, target subvolumes of the build volume into which the 3D part is to be printed, retrieving a dimensional compensation factor associated with each target subvolume, and then applying each dimensional compensation factor to the 3D object model to scale the 3D part according to the position of the 3D part within the build volume.
