			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>When I try to print small things they end up printing around the middle of the bed, which is fine.</p><p>But when I print large things (or arrays of smaller things) that take up most of the (8x8) bed, the carriage runs into the Y end stop and skips steps and then tries to print off the right side of the bed.</p><p>It looks like there&#039;s an offset in the system that something knows where the bed is relative to the home position, but it&#039;s not set up right.</p><p>What are the right numbers for the SD4 and where do I put them?</p><p>Thanks!</p>]]></content>
