Z Axis Height Calibration

[usergoo]

Either I am over simplifying things, or this thread is being way over complicated. I will test this afternoon to find out.
This thread details the solution as unlocking the set z=o parameter and then manually adjusting the variance each time you level the bed and resetting the z(home position). Why would you want to do this each time when you can just set this statically in steps in the configuration?



I'll test another cube today, but if i am understanding these parameters correctly, you machine is now calibrated and all you have to do is level like normal each time and print. Am I missing something?

No! No! No!

Do not mess with the steps! They are correct.
This problem has been solved lang ago...
What I described before was a workaround to manually set zero which by the way works pretty well.

The problem is only regarding the 1st few layers. Messing with the steps will mess up your overall height.
Elegoo provides different z-motors without spring washer on request ond conveniently provide 500ml resin as well for the efforts.

Use either the workaround or the new motor. (or both)

Please learn to read before going into tirades.No one is changing the step height..M8084 is z offset. Z offset is in steps and calculated from the steps/mm defined in M8010. The difference between sensor read 0 and software z=0. It is exactly what you are temporarily setting when you press the z=0 button. Setting it in Gcode makes the setting static . You are absolutely correct that changing 8010 would be a nightmare, but this is not what was stated. I don't want a stepper without a spring because it is there to protect the screen. This is just basic printer calibration. Thank you and goodbye.
