Z not moving down
Posted: Sat Nov 19, 2016 10:12 pm
My Z axis cannot go down with manual control (in Rapetier-Host GEEEtech), even when Z axis is manualy set up +xx mm. I can move Z axis down only after when i do Auto Home. But i can never go lower (with using software manual control) as it's set.
Every time i hit Auto Home for Z axis, it just move up about 4mm.
Does it mean that i must before every printing set manualy Z axis 0.1mm from platform?
Edit:
I found out that at start of printing Z axis move up around 2mm and then start printing. A few layer of printed model looks quite messy. At start of printing i manualy calibrate nozzle 0.1mm from platform, because in software i cannot auto home Z axis (it just do same like before printing +~2mm).
