        Repetier isn't a slicer. Which slicer in Repetier are you using? If I remember right, it has Cura, Slic3r and Skeinforge. Cura has issues that you have been told about in another thread you had going.

          what size pullys do you have on that printer your steps/mm seem to be odd also is it GT2 belt or MXL.

          87.489 is a strange Steps/mm figure also what type of thread is on you Z Axis (Diam and Pitch plus thread type please).

            87.489 is correct for the MXL belts and pulleys on the Ormerod printer. I presume they are 18 tooth pulleys.

            However, most printers use GT2 belts and pulleys, not MXL.

                  For GT2 pulleys with 20 teeth, the X and Y steps/mm should be 80. For a leadscrew with 2mm lead driven direct from the motor with no reduction, the Z steps/mm should be 1600.
