Posted · G29 'Bed level height' does nothing

Hi, I have an Anycubic Kossel Linear Plus (230x230x300mm). The software this printer comes with is a very old version of Cura (15.x) and doesn't work with windows 8.

 

I am using Cura 4.0 and have set the printer to "Kossel Pro". The stardard dimensions are 230x230x270.

 

If type "G0 Z0" to go to bottom center (with no bed height 'G29') it goes down 2-3cm from the top.

If I type "G29 ___" (G29 anything), to set the bed height... then "G0 Z0" to go to bottom center, it goes down to 2.5cm from the bed every time.

 

Doesn't matter what I enter for G29.

Doesn't matter what I enter for the the printer dimensions height.

 

Is there some bed height value that is fixed for this printer?

What should I do to get my 300mm height kossel printer working?

        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.
