Topic: Printing Taulman 910

Ive read the best way to stick Nylon is using a phenolic sheet on the build platform.

I have a piece of 3/8" thick phenolic. This will change the bed height.
Instead of readjusting the bed level screws, what is the best way to adjust Z height thru software or firmware ?
I dont see anything in Curaengine to do this. Or is there ?

Slicr3 has a setting, Z offset, under printer settings. Not very inclined to use Slicr3, but is this another way ?

Re: Printing Taulman 910

Played w/ Cura start gcode and this is my solution.

; Default start code
G28 ; Home extruder
G92 Z-9.525  ; reset the position
G1 Z15 F{Z_TRAVEL_SPEED}
M107 ; Turn off fan
G90 ; Absolute positioning
M82 ; Extruder in absolute mode
{IF_BED}M190 S{BED}
; Activate all used extruder
{IF_EXT0}M104 T0 S{TEMP0}
G92 E0 ; Reset extruder position
; Wait for all used extruders to reach temperature
{IF_EXT0}M109 T0 S{TEMP0}

Will have to play w/ gcode position to get the correct nozzle Ht, that way when PLA is used , no bed adjust required.
