        If it is homed, it would be at the home position, wouldn't it?

        Can you be more specific about what you mean?

          I think he wants to move the printer to the initial/zero/home postition without homing it first. Maybe a global variable could be a way to to something like this?

            Once homed, the printer will "know" where X=0, Y=0 and Z=0 are. So to move to those co-ordinates simple send G90 (to use absolute positioning), then G1 X0, Y0 Z0.

                You may not want to move to Z0 since that would have the nozzle touching the bed - and if things are slightly off - hitting the bed.

                You might consider something like Z10.
