    Near top of cura go to PREPARE screen (you are already there in above screenshot).  Then click on your printer near the top left and choose "manage printers".  Then click "machine settings".  Uncheck "origin at center'.  Done. 

     

    "Origin at center" is for delta printers which are a rare breed although Elegoo does make some delta printers. But it sounds like you have an XYZ printer so you want that "origin at center" unchecked.

    There may be other issues.  Is it possible you are slicing for one of the elegoo delta printers?  Maybe you selected the wrong printer in cura.
