Cura home position settings -

Hi Folks -

I have a Prusa I3 and have been using it with the front left corner as 0,0 which works great with Cura.

I recently changed my X axis endstop to the opposite side and would like to change the machine settings

accordingly so that my prints do not come out reversed or mirror image looking. Is there a way to do this effectively?

The optional settings for 0,0 by default are the front left corner -or- center of the bed but no right corner option.

Thanks! - JD

    This has to be specified in the firmware. Afaik your printer also uses Marlin. Check configuration.h for the homing directions.

    OK got it, I thought so. I'm guessing that the "0,0" home position indicator (black crosshair symbol) will always be shown in the front left corner on the graphic display in Cura regardless of which side the printer will be set up on?

    Yes, I think so. Afaik the only other option Cura offers is the origin at the center, intended for delta printers.

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
