Z height offset changing
-
I use mesh bed levelling.
If I restart my printer. And then warm it up and home it, then start a print, it will have the proper z offset. -0.8mmAfter I run a print. If I home all axies again and run another job, the z offset seems a few mm lower then I should be and the first layer is ruined.
Not sure why this is happening.
I have to pull power and restart for each new print.Running 1.21rc4

Can you post your config.g and homeall.g?
-
Disable mesh bed leveling and then home the printer.

Hi. Your trigger height in G31 command is -1.8 . What kind of probe are you using? If its not piezo, then this should be positive value. And i belive -1.8 is too much even if it is piezo.
-
my Z endstop is special. it uses the nozzle and move the entire gantry vertically until its triggered. trust me that number is correct
-
maybe since its a negative value that is somehow causing the firmware to miscalculate something, since its not typical
-
@adamfilip, did you try out my comment?
I suppose this is the printer we are talking about? -
Yes a revised version of that printer. I will try adding a G29 S2 at my ending code, and see if that makes any difference
-
on my first test, adding the G29 S2, seems to have worked
