Z Homing, nozzle doesnt reach bed

Royce1

Hi there,

as far as I know, Repetier forbids negative Z offsets.
The closest I can get the nozzle to the bed is about 1mm, I cant unscrew the z-endstop adjustment screw any further.
As I dont have a Zmax endstop, I also cant home to Zmax.
Is there any way I can get the nozzle closer to the bed softwarewise?

Thanks

Yes, but it is not nice as you can not do the official and correct solution.
Make sure firmware is compiled with ALWAYS_CHECK_ENDSTOPS 0
G28
G1 S1
G92 Z1

adjust G92 to what ever height you have after homing. G1 S1 disables coordinate check. That should allow you to move to Z=0.
