If yes, then they should have different steps, send Gcode"M92 Z400" and then send"M500" through slicer software to change it.

I'm sorry if I sound stupid but I'm really new to all this. how would I go about doing that, I hardly know what software to use (Easyprint 3d refuses to communicate with my printer, Repiteir's slic3r has stopped working (& the whole print head raising problem)). again if Im sorry if i sound whiny but im just a bit baffeled

Can repetier host succefully connect to your printer?
If yes, then you can send this two gcode through manual control->G-Code.
M92 Z400: change the setp/mm for Z-axis
M500: saving to EEPROM

You need to check the baud rate of the slice software setting at first.
Command waiting means the USB connect have a problem with it.
Pls check it.
