Hi;
Took a look at your files, they look ok.
Let me get some more information, What is your Z-Axis lead Screw.
Sample Code from my own Z-Axis below
// Typical stepper motors have 200 steps per full step/rev = 1.8°/step, so 1/16 microstepping = STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_E = 3200
// X-Y Axis 3200, / 20 tooth, / 2mm pitch = 200*16 / 20 / 2 = 80 :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_X / IDLER_TEETH_X / BELT_PITCH_X)
// Z Axis 3200, / 1.25mm pitch leadscrew = 200*16 /1.25 = 2560 :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_Z / PITCH_OF_Z_ROD)
// Z Axis 3200, / 8mm pitch leadscrew = 200*16 /8 = 400 :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_Z / PITCH_OF_Z_ROD)
// Z Axis 3200, / 4mm pitch leadscrew = 200*16 /4 = 800 :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_Z / PITCH_OF_Z_ROD)
// Z Axis 3200, / 2mm pitch leadscrew = 200*16 /2 = 1600 :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_Z / PITCH_OF_Z_ROD)
// E-Axis 3200, / (11mm Gear OD * pi) :: (STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION_E * EXTRUDER_GEAR_RATIO / (PINCH_WHEEL_DIAMETER * PI))

I believe it's 1/4x16 acme threaded rod, or whatever came on the printrbot simple metal. It's stock factory as far as I know, I bought the printer used and it was never replaced that I know of. Any way i dropped the new Marlin in it today (2.0). Now it homes to the 0 position, but if I put an offset in the firmware it still refuses to lower the nozzle any lower. The lcd and slicer both register the offset, meaning if I put the offset in Marlin firmware at -1.00 or just 1.00 and home the Z, after homing is complete it will now show whatever value I set as the offset. However the nozzle is not higher or lower. I'm using paper as a feeler gauge and the nozzle height is always the same, doesn't matter what it says the offset is. I don't know.

Just tried to run a test print. Homed the Z axis to 0, then brought it down .1 at a time until it just grabed the paper, (at .3). Went into marlin and added a 0.03 offset, since I figured it is backwards like my last post stated. Probe heated, went through the 3 point auto level, then started the print at Z level .3 according to the lcd. No idea why it did with an offset of .3? Anyway still reading and trying to figure it out.
