Prusa i3 Prints Wrong Size
July 26, 2016 11:21PM
So i have a recently built prusa i3 rework and ive noticed the problem that for everything i print it 4/5 the size its should be on the x and y plane so to cope i've been scaling all prints by 1.25 in the x and y plane but now im trying some larger prints that cura thinks are gonna be too big for my bed but i know because of the scaling issue they will is there any way to either fix the scaling issue or override cura to prints anyways?

You need to fix the steps for your X and Y axis in Marlin, look for this line:

#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {80,80,4000,530}

80 is for a 20 tooth pulley, if yours is different use the Prusa calculator:
