Reprap, first print, how do i home it before sending the gcode
April 08, 2011 02:34PM
I have completed my reprap build and am using repsnapper for running it (electronics are ramps).
I just tried sending a 20mm test block to print, but it just seems to bump into the x end stop over and over and then ends, y and z don't move.
I double checked all connections and everything seems to be correct.
I have tried home all, but that only moved x again.
I am at a loss what i am doing wrong. Do i need to manually home all the axis, if so to what location or is there something in repsnapper that i am doing wrong?

have you checked your opto endstops, are they working right, and also check your firmware settings too.
