Topic: Lets talk about them steppers.

I have my Prusa I4 up and running. 

my first prints are of a test piece so that basic dimensions can be checked and calibrated.  And, the Z-axis is spot on, but the X and Y-axis fall short equally by .4mm on the ID and OD.  Odd that the orifice is .4mm?

Now, I see that the the steppers are set to 80.4 steps for X and Y on the LCD.

So I need to recalculate/change the steps to adjust print to proper dimension?

Check your belts  and any other sources of backlash.
