What did SD support say? They're sometimes maddenly slow and repetitive, but they're persistent and by now they've seen a lot of different troubles, so they may recognize the issue.

they know the issue but they think its not an "issue" if you want send in mb for update thats it okey whit them.
but i want do it from home same money shipping/ custom.

Yeah, I knew I could probably do that, but the issue is their very slow response.  After waiting almost 6 months for the Press, I am afraid to send the motherboard in, cause I might die before it gets returned...

Is it possible that your z-offset is wrong?


I guess anything is possible, but I've tried all settings and print just plows through on second layer.  My conclusion is that the bed is warped so bad it will not print in certain areas.  Just about to give up on this machine.

Perhaps it is not a feature in the earlier versions. When I run just the M853 command it returns the current value, in my case "M853 P4"

Confirmed, "M853 P4" command increased probe points to 16 without having to flash firmware. Don't forget the M500 to store the change.

wow ok i need to check this..

but when i write m853 i get no info in the command line

do you have the upgraded press or the early version ?

"M853 P3" will set it back to 3x3. Haven't tried it yet though.
