    Volumetric Extrusion settings

    It's unclear to me after many Google searches exactly how to start with the built in volumetric extrusion of Marlin. I'm using Slic3r 1.2.9 and Marlin bugfix 1.1.x. Triffid Hunter's calibration...

    They changed the Z_RAISE_BEFORE_PROBING to something a little different, at least in 1.1.0-RC6. It is now here:

    Roxy, I've got a question about how the z position numbers are calculated in your M48 code compared to other commands. I've been battling a problem all day that started with a wire falling off my...

    There is usually a setting in the firmware to prevent cold extrudes. This will keep the extruder motor from running unless the hotend temperature is above a certain threshold. It's not clear what...

    The problem turned out to be my z offset for the auto bed leveling. I had checked it and thought it was correct, but when I went back to level the bed manually, I found the offset was off by about...

    I am using the EEPROM, but the settings there are the same. I refreshed them after upgrading Marlin and verified in Repetier that they were correct. I use the EEPROM settings for...

    Z-Height issues

    I built an i3 variant a little over a year ago and have been using it ever since. I've noticed that my prints are now not coming out at the proper Z height. It was losing about .25mm per 10mm of...

    Well, I've never seen that behavior. For homing Z, I will see the message coming from the firmware that I have to home X and Y before Z if I haven't homed X and Y first. But I've never seen the...

    Well, I certainly don't see anything obvious in there. You have this line:

    8000 seems a little...

    Can you post a copy of your Configuration.h file before and after modifying it for ABL (the stock version of ABL). Maybe we can see something that's not quite right.

    Hmm, very strange. You mentioned this issue in Pronterface. Have you actually tried to start a print (that does G29) and does it also move all the axes instead of just one?

    In reality Z=0 should mean the nozzle is touching the bed. However, we usually calibrate the bed with the nozzle cold, so we allow for heat expansion by leaving just a paper width gap (or about...

    Hmm, that's not the way it works for me. I have my raise before homing set to 10mm and it always goes up 10mm no matter where it started from.

    What I don't think I saw in the conversation was whether you were using the auto bed leveling code before adding Roxy's enhancements and if so, did the problem exist then?

    Roxy,

    Do you plan on making this a pull request to Marlin so it gets into the codebase permanently?
