Bed probing is stopping after 1 or 2 probes
I've noticed that when I print something, the bed "probing" that occurs before the print starts doesnt seem to probe the number of points it is supposed to.
For example I just started a print of several items all over the bed. When the printer is getting ready, at one point the screen reads something like "probing point 1/35", but after 1 probe or 2 it stops probing and goes to printing. It always probes in the bottom left corner of the bed.
Is that normal? I know the mk4 is only supposed to probe an area of the bed that is as large as what will be printed on, as opposed to the mk3 which probed a fixed amount of points. But why is my mk4 only probing a few points in the bottom left corner even if I'm printing all over the bed?

You might have missed the initial full probe.
I've noticed that after the printer probes the bed (in this case, the display would count up to 35/35), it then performs a second probe stage near the purge line after a brief pause. This second stage only probes a few points, but errantly reports x/y on the display, with y being whatever number of probes performed in the first stage. So, this second stage ends at something like 2/35.
So clearly this is a bug, but in my experience the first stage is always completed in full.

You were right... It was doing a short second stage, I had missed the first
