I had the same question but found that animoose had the answer over on his blog near the bottom of the page. I recently did a x/y rebuild myself with those exact parts and found that the settings he used work.

I'm at 1559 now on this print of a 20x20x20 cube 400 caused the head to stick in the last layer 1000 gave me a 13mm cube i tried at 1235 which is what I messured the movement of the carriage at and got 17 so now I am trying 1559. Also looks like I am under extruding so dropped from 95 step to 90. 10 minutes till i can check.


I bought different rods mine were 400 mm and seems the thread pitch was diffrent.

The prusaprinters.org site gave me 1600 and it is at 1585 now, I still have this odd print separation issue though in abs on taller printers. 1585 was the z-steps i need. and the print separation was from my knock off V6.


If this is seen by a ADMIN please mark as solved.
