· Actual print is offset to the left vs. Cura
You are using the "left" nozzle. It's offset X cm to the left. If any of us ever get to use the "right" nozzle it will be offset X cm to the right and utilize a little bit more of the build area ( 2Xcm). Not sure if X is 2 or maybe closer to 1.5?
If some day you want to make a multicolored print with both colors on the left and right edges of the print the build volume will be much less than advertised. Similarly, if the left side of the part is printed with one nozzle and the right side with the other we will gain quite a bit in build volume.
