need help with X axis after upgrade
i had my x axis on a belt drive at 80 steps per mm. now i have upgraded it to a lead screw drive and i just cant seem to get the settings correct. its an 8mm bar 1.8 step angle and i have tried all micro stepping from 1/8 to 1/32 micro steps i just cant get it correct it either goes too fast and far or too little.
i have used the lead screw calc but that's not the correct setting it says use 2560 on a 1/16 micro-step
anyone any ideas

lead of thread(8mm) which is the distance of the nut to rotate a circle.
Screw diameter: 8mm/0.31".
Length: 100mm(3.94")/200mm(7.87")/250mm(9.84")/300mm(11.81")/350mm(13.78")/400mm(15.75").
Screw spacing: 2mm/0.08".
Lead of thread: 8mm/0.31"
3200 / 8 (lead) = 400 steps per mm.
so if i wanted to go to 32 sub steps would i benefit from it as i do have the ability
