Hi all, I'm very new to the world of 3D printing as I just recently purchased my very first 3D printer, the Zonestar M8R2. It's a DIY mixed color printer with 1 nozzle and a heated bed running Repetier Firmware 0.92.9. The dimensions are x =220, y =220, z =240. Mechanically everything works perfectly fine and as a test I managed to even print a small block using Repetier Host V2.0.5 and CuraEngine as a slicer. Not being familiar with G-code I tried out some settings to get the Z-axes closer to the bed. After that it seems that with every object I try to print the first couple of layers are properly centered as it should but soon after the z-axes goes off center and starts printing in a totally different directions.
I've tried to find the solution by changing a few of the settings; 1 extruder instead of 2, relative instead of absolute positioning. As z homes about 10 mm from the bed, I tried x Min =10, y min =10, Bed Left = -10, Bed Front = -10, but nothing seems to solve my problem.
I've done a search online but was not able to find anyone who experienced the same problems as I do, so I hope that maybe some of you might now the solution to this. Below my printer settings in RH and firmware EEPROM config and a some pics to give you an idea.
Many thanks in advance!
