Bed dimensions in RH don't help with centering by the way. You have to set that in slic3r. I totally forgot about this until just now! Make sure RH and slic3r have the same x,y dimensions.

both have to be checked if correct. sometimes RH printer settings is what Slic3r reads as options in its printer settings tab but yes check both.

It's not a few mm difference, the center is few cms off. I'll make a photo.

I only save G-code after I know it prints good

Still hitting the tensioner and still not printing in the middle of print bed as the model is in RH.

From this sentence you quoted it sounds like they moved the cooling fan to the front of the extruder on their new models (Press, Workbench, Workbench Apprentice), so it won't cut the x axis like it did for SD4.

I'm not bashing you, that's not what bashing is.

This is a forum where giving incorrect info can cause damage to the hardware of the person asking for help. So I wouldn't (and didn't in this thread) post something I didn't know beyond reasonable doubt.

Really? the only thing you did post here you knew nothing about the info I gave, be it wrong or right. so if you cant SHOW the so called correct response to a Topic. hold your posts. the term for such behavior is 'heckling'

I know the info I gave on this topic is correct even though I dont own an SD4 the RH ver software settings in pics is same software as what I have. now let some body offer help to others since thats not what your trying to do. in fact looking at your few posts all I see you doing is criticizing everyone else. thats anti-helpful/productive to this type forum.

    1) holding down the glass beds on the WB with bulldog clips - really? shaving 1" off each side of the build area is a shoddy misselling

We will be shipping with smaller clips, not the large binder clips seen in the pictures.

dont know anything about that message

Mine was purchased a month ago, and the fan is on the left.

Also I have this issue and never bothered to fix it. Let me know if you find the correct values.

And wtf. Your installation of Repetier also shows language values instead of actual text on some parts. Ever seen the message "L_HEATERS_ON_QUEST?". That should say "Cartesian Robot", not "L_CARTESIAN_PRINTER". Never fixed this either. Been using s3d for a while now.
