Thank for reply. I will try black paper. And yes, I am using is mesh compensation.

Hello guys,

I am using IR sensor bought on filastruder.com and they recommended me this for for any help I need regarding this little device. II have Original Prusa i3 MK2 with glass sheet on the bed. I like printing on glass and I want to stick with it.

IR sensor will detect it, which is great, because now i dont have to put it off the bed before every calibration.
I have also read that this sensor is much accurate than inductive sensors so I thought that it can measure distance of nozzle from bed much better and therefore I will not have the issue I had before - uneven layer height.

Because left side is somewhat higher than right side I have very squished line on left side and normal line on right side. Shouldn't the firmware compensate this based on data measured by IR sensor? Those data are more precise than from old PINDA so it should be much better, shouldn't it?

With IR sensor i got only one advantage - it can detect glass. But I wanted to get rid off uneven first layer.

Is there any additional configuration I need to do? Firmware version is original Prusa 3.1.0 (https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware/tree/MK2/Firmware)

Thanks for any help.
