Posted · 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.
