Wasn't sure if it was somehow holding my leveling settings since I finally got them dialed in. Thanks.

I figured it out. Thanks! Hey, what does saving to the EEPROM actually do in this situation? When I got the settings right, I save it to the EEPROM. Since it's manually adjusted with screws, not sure what this does. Thanks.

The bed has lost its home position. When I go to start a print, the hot end is way above the bed. This is from a test file on the Da Vinci's SD card, so it's not using any incorrect Z Offset in Slic3r. How do I get this thing back in order?


Z home is determined by the endstop and then the bed level you have adjusted. If necessary you may need to back the bed level down to the minimum then send a home command and see where that gets you. If you are then above the bed as you should be, just calibrate your bed height then. If your Z is more than a few MM off then you have a command in your firmware overriding the Z endstop. Since it does this with a test file that rules out a setting in slicer or your start gcode as you said.
