How about if you load the STL file rather than GCode.  Can you see it on the grid there?

Could be that the axes aren't homed.

Could be a bad slice.  Does RH show the model on the print bed floor?

Our RH hasn't shown the model being printed on the view in months, but this is the first time the extruder has ever done this. I will have to check the axes, and any other options people suggest might be causing it to do this

unplug everything and see if the head moves (gently)

I cant really help why its not moving programatically.

I cant even manually move it side to side. How do I get it unstuck?
