hello,
I have a SD3(solidoodle3) that everything works fine but as soon as you try to print the Z axis (bed) goes down and starts printing in mid air, I try changing direction and the homing but it did work.

Hi, I have similar issue. I have a home build p3steel and when I run Cura made Gcode my print head is pushed into the table. When I run homing the print head homes correct on all axis. When I run a Craftware made Gcode, print builds correctly upwards from the table. Maybe it is also matter of slicer in your case. I don’t know what should I do to make my board work correctly with my printer setup and Cura. Can any one help?
same thing here.
i event try slic3r but the samething keeps happening
Just before you try to print, where is the head located, and what does the M114 command return ?
ok C: X:0.0000 Y:0.0000 Z:0.0000 E:0.000
and is on the bottom right
Then everything is correct on the Smoothieboard side, and the problem is in your Gcode file, probably because of a configuration problem in your slicing problem. I recommend you read it’s documentation and/or ask it’s community for help.
Can someone help in anyway
Hansel, have you read Arthur’s reply of 15 Dec? If you look at the start of the gcode file, you will probably see a command instructing a Z-axis move. Add a “;” to disable the action and you may find it is fixed.
can you help me with the configuration and any other setup for slicer, ect.
I think the forum or mailing list for your slicing program is a better place to ask for help for this particular issue.
But you can post your start gcode here and see if somebody has an idea.
ok let me try that thank
