2nd print too high and z-offset is inconsistent,config problem?

cosmowave

@lui2004 ok, then it could be, that this code is not allowed in prusa slicer.
I use it in stop.g, so it's slicer independent....
Sorry for that!

@cosmowave

no problem !

now i have follow problem, my z-offset shows me different z-offsets:
whats going wrong here ?

Stopped at height 0.709 mm
Stopped at height 0.729 mm
Stopped at height 0.739 mm
Stopped at height 0.756 mm
Stopped at height 0.697 mm
Stopped at height 0.696 mm
Stopped at height 0.697 mm

Morning

the problem with the second preresist,the second print is always too high

i must shutdown the printer and then is all fine and the second print is again high

i dont know why

cosmowave

@lui2004 About this i can't say much. I don't use a z-probe...
Do you use babystepping during the first print?

Can you please post your startcodes once again?

lui2004

@cosmowave

no, i dont use babystep for the first print ,its all fine

prusa slicer start g-code:

T0
G28 XY ;Home XY
M561 ; Clear any bed transform that might be in place
G1 X162 Y110  ; Move Probe to middle of bed
G30 ; Do a single probe
G29 S1 ; Load my custom heightmap. Otherwise use G29 S1
G92 E0 ;Reset Extruder
G1 Z2.0 F3000 ;Move Z Axis up
M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set final nozzle print temp
M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; wait for the nozzle to heat up
G1 X10.1 Y20 Z0.28 F5000.0 ;Move to start position
G1 X10.1 Y200.0 Z0.28 F1500.0 E15 ;Draw the first line
G1 X10.4 Y200.0 Z0.28 F5000.0 ;Move to side a little
G1 X10.4 Y20 Z0.28 F1500.0 E30 ;Draw the second line
G92 E0 ;Reset Extruder

end g-code:

M106 S0 ; turn off cooling fan
M104 S0 ; turn off extruder
M140 S0 ; turn off bed
G91 ; set to relative positioning
G1 Z5 ; raise Z 5 mm
G90 ; set to absolute positioning
G1 X235 Y235 ; park at X0 Y0
M84 ; disable motors

@lui2004 And when you use a startcode like @o_lampe said in his post (without G30)?

T0
M561 ; Clear any bed transform that might be in place
G28  ;Home all
G29 S1 ; Load my custom heightmap. Otherwise use G29 S1
...

@cosmowave

i dont have tested!

i will test it after work

@cosmowave @lui2004
The start code in my slicer is always empty. Also my homeall.g only calls homeX, homeY, homeZ.
I want only one file, I have to edit.

My guess is, you G30-probe the bed after the heightmap is loaded, which changes the Z-height

@o_lampe
Thanks ,i will test it after work

@o_lampe said in 2nd print too high and z-offset is inconsistent,config problem?:

I also repeat the G31 line everytime I change M558. I'm afraid it'll use default values instead, if I don't. (paranoid?)

Definitely paranoid. The G31 restatement is unneeded.

@cosmowave said in 2nd print too high and z-offset is inconsistent,config problem?:

your end code is not really nice if you print an object near zmax! So the z axle can't raise 5mm.
It moves the z axle 5mm if it is possible.
If not, it moves to zmax.

Also unnecessary. If the axis limits are set correctly, the firmware won't allow it to go beyond z max anyway, so a relative move close to the z limit would stop at zmax regardless. No need for conditional gcode there.

@lui2004 Did you end up figuring out your problem with the second print start?
