    Option B... put a ruler on the platform (next to the nozzle) and move it 100mm in each direction (X, Y, Z). Test it a few times... If you consistently get say 96mm in X direction and 101 in Y direction, you need to adjust your steps... https://www.instructables.com/Calibr...imal-filament/ is a great link for walking you through updating GCode M92.

    Calibration measures

    So I followed Option B above

    X130.51 mm vs 130


    Y
    109.4 vs 110



    Z
    39.75 vs 40

    So they are all pretty good.

    In my opening post, I measured in X a difference of 0.34 mm over 30mm, so 1.13 % deviation
    My X calibration measures above deviate by 0.51 over 130mm which is 0.4% only.

    Maybe something else is not right ?
    Belts are tight, i cannot move the print head in any direction when printer is on.
