			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Yeah, you gotta set the x and y home position to negative integers in the EEPROM. Somewhere in the lines of -30.. You gotta eyeball it. Set them and manually move the head to 100, 100. If it&#039;s not centered, adjust the setting, home x, home y and move to 100,100 again</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>changing the eeprom is pretty easy I&#039;ve found, I open the eeprom settings (on the Mac version it&#039;s in the top menu bar &quot;Printer&quot;, you have to be connected to it.&nbsp; Double click any value and change away.&nbsp; Not sure when it reloads the eeprom to the printer, when it connects?&nbsp; When the printer restarts?&nbsp; I don&#039;t know but it does.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>OK, the issue is the pre-compiled binary has the the XY home (over the dump area) as 0,0. If you don&#039;t want to recompile the firmware with the correct geometry modifications then I think, in Slic3r, you can set the print area to 240x240 and the center to Y110 X134 and this will cause slicer to start the print in the physical middle of the bed.</p><p>BUT!!!</p><p>Be careful since you still only have a 200x200 print area you could inadvertently slice a larger model then the bed could fit.</p>]]></content>
