Please help, issue with G29
November 29, 2016 11:49AM
Hi,

I'm in the process of building a delta machine with ramps 1.4 running marlin (1.1.0-RC7), it's mostly done and I'm configuring marlin right now. Everything seems to work fine except when I try printing, the auto bed leveling leaves the extruder at Z_PROBE_DEPLOY_HEIGHT (50mm) and it starts printing in the air. My issue is that I do not know what gcode to add to the beginning so that the extruder would go down before printing. Can I just send the extruder back to the center and z level 0? would that take the probe data into consideration? What do most ppl have in the starting gcode? My current custom gcode is just G28, G29 and G1 Z5 F5000. Thanks.

"G1 Z5 F5000" why do you do that?

That's just the default in slic3r, is that the issue? it only goes up 5mm so the hotend is a bit off the bed while it's heating.
