You could write a small gcode with z moves and some xy moves in between for testing. That should work. Then add more and more of the print gcode making problems in the beginning until the problem reapears, then you know which commands cause the problem which should help finding the reason. I thought my Z axis must be off so I set it to auto home, then told it to go up 50mm and measured it with calipers. It was up exactly 50mm. So seems like it's going up the right amount. However, when I print it's like it's only going up 0.001mm and just drags. I can literally hear it grinding against the infill. For the life of me I could not get past the first few layers without the print turning to crap until I realized that the Z axis is not moving during print for layer change, it is printing the first 3-4 layers at the first layer height. I will check that out. When I auto home, it will move down just fine and will all be at 0 , 0 , 0. However when I try to manually bring up the Z axis on the screen, it doesn't move up, but the motor will run as if it is trying to. If I remove that z switch wire (I think it's called? The motor wire.) The problem is the Z axis does not move up after the printing starts. It DOES however move during homing and in manual control. This results in the everything getting printed on first layer I am using firmware Repetier 0.92 btw. And the driver currents are adjusted correctly. (0.12 mA, they are small steppers!) However during printing of some test squares, its pretty clear the bed isn't printing level (some are clearly too close, some too far away), and watching the Z-Axis like a hawk, it doesn't move at all, which I am assuming it is supposed to? Using cura to print. Here is my start code: Stealthburner. I can't seem to figure out where I've gone wrong. My z axis won't go up, but only while printing. It homes as expected, I can manually (via web/front panel) move it up and down, and there seems to be no rubbing anywhere. It's like it's stuck on the same layer but only when printing.
