Why Cura 5.1 printing beyond workpiece?

[Badgersurfer 2]

I have been doing a series of stringing tests on eSun Silk PLA and noticed that for some reasons the nozzle travel is going well outside the workpiece. I am confused by this as it obviously makes the job take considerably longer and also causes unnecessary stringing. Have I missed a setting here somewhere?

I have moved the workpiece to the center and the travel lines have moved accordingly . So it seems the nozzle is doing something that is aligned with the centerpoint on the X-axis. I thought maybe this may be to enable it to retract and extrude for the next layer? I have set retraction off and there is no difference.

In the Experimental section see if you have "Wipe Nozzle Between Layers" enabled.

Another setting that can give that behavior is in the Cooling section called "Lift Head".

This is a video of the travel...

Yep thanks for that it was the "Lift Head" setting. I will see if it makes any difference to my print now... interestingly it halves my print time from 10mins to 5 mins...

Thank you for sharing the guyz, I am also stuck in the same problem.
