Hello! I have problem with Teacup firmware: I can't calculate steps/per meter for my engines in my printer. It's engines from DVD drives. I tried to find some datasheets or something else, but can't. Maybe somebody can held me?Engines haven't some serial numbers or ect.
Next problem with printing procedure. When printing starts- first layer printing normal, but next are shifted to the side.

When you don't know the specifics of the device you simply measure.

you set you steps/mm to a value, you tell the machine to move a specific distance, you measure how far it moved. You adjust the steps/mm repeat till they match.

Here's a good starting point for calibration:
