How to setup the new Z axis height?

Army61 · 14 Mar 2021, 15:00

Hello, I would like to put on my 3D printer's bed the new borosilicate glass piece with 3.9 mm height. I haven't Z probe and I wish to lift Z=0 for 3.9 mm manually. How and where I can do it in the Web Control panel?

@Army61 how do you home z now?

My Home X,Y,Z axis working now correctly. But I wish to lift the bed - I'll put a glass on the bed and I need the new height.

@Army61 right, but the question still stands. how do you home z now? you must have a z endstop somewhere

where on the machine is it mounted?
post your homez so we can get an idea how things currently work

The magnet mounted on the bottom of bed.

@Army61 well assuming thats on z max (because you are unwilling to answer even the most basic of questions), you need to find z with your new bed.
i.e. jog down until the nozzle touches the bed.
then send G92 Z0
then send G1 H3 Z? F600 no idea what your z max is so you'll have to fill this value in yourself
get the new z maximum height by sending M208
replace the value you currently have in config.

of course that may not work for you as you haven't provided a homez (or any other files) to see how you do it now
