Can you break up the calibrating process into shorter steps? I'm mostly unfamiliar with 3D printing, what's all involved?

Kinda, but they all need to be done before I can start printing again. I replaced the entire hot-end, so I basically have to redo everything:

Rotation distance (distance traveled per one rotation of motor)
Hot-end PID calibration (controls heating)
Z-offset (how far above the bed the nozzle is from when the z-stop triggers)
Resonance compensation (printing fast can cause ghosting in the prints from resonance frequency)
Pressure advance (reduces nozzle ooze)

And all of that is just so I can print a mount to use a magnetic z-stop (normal is contact probe), then I get to do it all over again.

Then I need to do temperature and acceleration towers for each filament material.
