I'd look at the start scripts. And possibly use a negative value in the home position. Like -.1 or -.2... what software are you using?
It shouldn't go to full zero either. The first move of the gcode is usallly .2 z move, or whatever the first layer height is. You have to have a gap or the nozzle won't have any room to extrude plastic.

Check for Z offset in your slicer.

At this point I wouldn't use either. RepG is abandon ware from 2012. Makerware is getting less and less reliable with older Rep 1 style printers and clones like the Qidi. Makerware is ridiculously slow slicing also. If you value your time at all just get Simplify3d for $150. You will find the most help and support for this and it will make your life a lot less frustrating.

I use S3D.
This does not make sense to me what you said. When z axis is at the limiter and bed is proprerly leveled there should be a .4mm gap between nozzle and plate. So unless you using more than .4mm layer height the plate should hit the limiter for the first layer right?
edit:
Just started another print and same thing. I can see the material coming out of the nozzle and being to far away from the plate.Last edited by Syd_Khaos; 03-24-2016 at 12:39 PM.

Anyone who's looked at the power supply/control board for the QIDI, can you tell me what the output from the power supply to the board looks like? In short, I want to build an auto cut off by wiring a smoke detector to a relay and having it sit between the PS and the control board to cut power. How many volts/amps is it? Will most relays be able to handle it? I don't want to go between the AC outlet and the PS because of the higher voltage.
Edit: I guess there are actually two things that are drawing power - the print head and the heated bed and at different amperages. Does that mean I need a relay that cuts off both or is there a single entry point for power I can just cut off?

No, you level at z miniimum, and that is the gap with whatever you are measuring with, piece of paper, gauge or whatever. That is the reference position.
First layer in the gcode I posted is at .18, thats because the layer is set to .2 and first layer is 90% height = .18

It is 24V from the power supply to the Mighty board. (I'm not sure what current it is) If you insert a cutoff on that line it will shutdown everything... except the 24V power supply of coarse.
The Orange connector on the upper right is the 24V power connector.

Do bed magnets deteriorate.
