self leveling

in General Discussion

why when it attempts to do the self leveling the print head is always off the bed to the right on the x axis and to the front on the y this yet another programer mistake?

@Daryl Smith Apologies for the late reply, depending on whether you have a single or DSE setup you will need to accordingly and have the corresponding firmware installed also.

Hi Daryl, that sounds a strange action for the printer. Just to clarify, when you try the home command does the head go towards the x and y stops or the other direction? If so, does the x and y motors travel in the correct direction when using pronterface? (Just trying one thing at a time because from your initial comment it sounds like x and y are travelling the wrong way)

i just dug it out of the closet as it's never printed anything even a line. so i tried a print and it barred the print head right into the deck.

thank god i got a new printer from prusa so not sure what i will do with this. will try and get rid of the dual printing feature

Hi, that is definitely not right. When it is turned on, from the touchscreen "move" menu do the X, Y and Z buttons move the head in the right direction?
