Almost there, Z lifting .44 July 25, 2013 12:19PM |

Thanks to all the help from this forum, I have almost finished dialing in my Mendel.
I have the correct extrusion length, but here is a print that I'm testing thin walls. The Z axis is lifting .44 before it starts printing and that is messing up the first layer.
Where can I tweak this so that it doesn't lift?

\Mendel_Reprap\stl\0.5mm-thin-wall_export.gcode It took 51 seconds to export the file. 0 mm of filament used in this print the print goes from 74.979000 mm to 105.006000 mm in X and is 30.027000 mm wide the print goes from 74.981000 mm to 185.000000 mm in Y and is 110.019000 mm wide the print goes from 0.441000 mm to 9.891000 mm in Z and is 9.450000 mm high Estimated duration (pessimistic): 22 layers, 00:06:42 Extruding 1.000000mm of filament.

make change to marlin firmware, or whatever firmware you are using. look for similar to what is below.
in configuration_adv.h there is a set of constants near the bottom of the page
#define X_HOME_RETRACT_MM 5
#define Y_HOME_RETRACT_MM 5
#define Z_HOME_RETRACT_MM 1
this is how much the retract is after homing.
change the value for z.
