I've had this printer for a year. I have everything working great EXCEPT for the z-offset calibration. I have to update the z offset manually in the config file.
My last go was to try the "auto_z" calibrate plugin. Seemed to work great with my klicky- found the z-endstop switch, found the klicky base on the endstop switch, then the bed.
Next when I do a G90 - then a G0 Z1 the nozzle is pushing into the bed. This same thing happens when I do a standard z- endstop calibration. It is off by about 1.3 millimeters every time.
Is something overriding this?
Here are the values I got from the auto_z: Nozzle on z-endstop : Z=10.80775, Klicky base on z-endstop: Z=6.417750, Klicky on bed: z=1.312750.
Why won't it remove that 1.3????
Thanks for any help. This printer is almost junk if the first layer needs to be set by hand!!!
