Hi,

I have purchased and assembled a Geeetech Prusa I3X. During first test and calibrations one question arised:

- how do I set the center position (X, Y) in my printer so that the printing job is centered in building plate?

This is what happens now (X representing center point):

Code: Select all

 -------------
 |           |
 |           |
 |           |
 |     X     |
 |           |
 -------------        
    FRONT
This is how it should be? (X representing center point):

Code: Select all

 -------------
 |           |
 |           |
 |     X     |
 |           |
 |           |
 -------------        
    FRONT

Than you Mark so much - this the case! Solution seems to be very simple - even for a newbie like me :-)

Mark, where is that screen? In printer settings or Slic3r config? I have looked around and cannot find it. My pro C prints to the right enough that the extruder smacks the Z axis if I dont move the object over to the left.
