Re: Layers shifting to the Z tower

I tested probing and it works fine. My mistake was thinking that I needed to enable MIN_HARDWARE_ENDSTOP_Z for the probing to work. This caused the FSRs to trigger the Z_MIN end stop randomly causing the layer shifting. Printing and probing just fine with only FEATURE_Z_PROBE enabled. Thanks for the...

Re: Layers shifting to the Z tower

I also don't understand why it is only moving towards the Z tower. Wouldn't it go back and forth? and woul...

Layers shifting to the Z tower

My printer has started having this problem. I tried checking the belts and cheapskates, everything seems to move freely or stay tight as appropriate. The shifting is directly towards the Z tower and is extreme. I checked the fan on the rambo. I have repeiter 0.92.2 (20170822) loaded. Its a stock v2 ...
