It's great to hear you are using the X MAX-3 and OrcaSlicer for 3D printing. If you have any specific questions or need troubleshooting help with your printing process, feel free to ask!

I mean, I know the slicer has an option to add one

@void void

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:25 AM

#

so basically i could jst put offset to default 0.000 n edit this instead right

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:25 AM

#

yeah, but then it'll only apply to things sliced through orca, so if you generate gcode through some browser thing, or elsewhere, it won't be there

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:26 AM

#

oh ye i always use Orca xd

#

but tbh i want it to permanently save to the machine

#

this is the problem

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:27 AM

#

so use the machine's controls to do it? you might be able to change it via g-code on the machine also, not sure how that works on klipper

Sec tryin to get a pic of my main issue

#

#

so this -1.130 is the best result i got

#

did this while printing

#

so i went to the actual Z offset place

#

which is this one

#

#

but u can see it only has -1.13

#

whats goin on

#

any idea

#

thats wmy issue

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:32 AM

#

? -1.130 is the same as -1.13

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:32 AM

#

n i think cause of that even when i apply -1.13 it dosnt give same result

#

exactly

#

butt...

#

nvm

#

no buts

#

ye thats the issue

#

or...

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:33 AM

#

ah. during a print you babystepped up 0.2, and that works better?

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:33 AM

#

whats that?

#

oh ye also i dont know what that number is

#

first it was 0.200

#

later when i tried it was 0.400

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:35 AM

#

so, during a print, you got to z-offset page and hit up a few times until it looked good?

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:36 AM

#

Yes

#

Im gonna put it 0.000 in machine this tume

#

N do that

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:37 AM

#

if I understand that correctly, you just need to move the z-offset on the other page by that much. -1.13 + 0.2 would be -1.11
unless that 0.2 is just showing you the current layer

void void Mar 25, 2025, 12:38 AM

#

So i should get the exact amount i need to put

#

Heres the wierd part

#

#

If - its -1.00

#

Butttt

#

#

If + its 1.000

#

Im super shit at maths n thats confusing af lol

honest hearth Mar 25, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

you should have a negative offset

void void Mar 25, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

so

#

started with 0.000

#

n best result with -0.850

#

so i jst applied -0.85

#

n about to try now

void void Mar 25, 2025, 1:40 AM

#

turns out i got a flow rate issue too

#

started with flow rate 1

#

all from 0 to -20 are all fked

#

best one is + 20

#

so flow rate should be 3....????

#

or im doin somethin wrong
