Extruding in mid air.



  • I accidentally pressed the "set Z0" button on the brain module and tried to print. the printer started to print at the top of the Z axis. I did a bed level and Z off set. this time when i tried to print it still extruded in mid air but it was about an inch of the print bed. how do i get the printer to know where the print bed is again?

    so sad, it was printing so well.

    Was this on a delta printer?

    If so, home your printer. Then, release the motor tension and move the head down so that the nozzle is touching the build plate in the center of the bed. Go to the LCD and set Z=0. Then Re-home the machine and run the leveling again. Should be back to normal.
