Nozzle goes up few milimeters when the print starts

Hi,

I've recently purchased a Geeetech I3 pro w. The bed has been leveled correctly but when the print starts the nozzle gets up a few mm and it makes that the filament doesn't adhere to the bed.

Regards,

Hi,

Fixed, I've just realized that with the T8 threaded rod I needed to send the Gcode "M92 Z400" and "M500".

Regards.

Hello.
:mrgreen:

The slicer program you use has a command line.
You can also send commands after connection to a standard console, any program supporting serial communication.
:D

OK I tried entering i think m400 but the z axis went all the way up and it crashed to the top, any chance you could show me how you entered your gcode details I don't really understand how this works thankyou so much for the reply Pete

Hello
:mrgreen:

Each slicer program in the manual control section has an edit box to send Gcode commands.
