Z goes to 0 at end of print
I'm having an odd issue with my mini. It was working great, then I had to put it in storage for about a month. I brought it out of storage, hooked it up, ran the setup wizard, and started printing. Now on the prints the z axis will go to 0 at the end of the print. The print ends up fine, but the printer is suppose to end/park the print head at a height greater than to the print.
My current End G-code setting is the following:
G1 E-1 F2100 ; retract
{if max_layer_z < max_print_height}G1 Z{z_offset+min(max_layer_z+2, max_print_height)} F720 ; Move print head up{endif}
G1 X178 Y178 F4200 ; park print head
{if max_layer_z < max_print_height}G1 Z{z_offset+min(max_layer_z+30, max_print_height)} F720 ; Move print head further up{endif}
G4 ; wait
M104 S0 ; turn off temperature
M140 S0 ; turn off heatbed
M107 ; turn off fan
M221 S100 ; reset flow
M900 K0 ; reset LA
M84 ; disable motors
Below is a print specific G-code for a recent print that had a height of 12mm.
; Filament-specific end gcode
G1 E-1 F2100 ; retract
G1 Z14 F720 ; Move print head up
G1 X178 Y178 F4200 ; park print head
G1 Z42 F720 ; Move print head further up
G4 ; wait
M104 S0 ; turn off temperature
M140 S0 ; turn off heatbed
M107 ; turn off fan
M221 S100 ; reset flow
M900 K0 ; reset LA
M84 ; disable motors
M73 P100 R0
Any help or ideas on how to stop it from parking at 0 is appreciated.

Thanks, that did the trick. I guess I need to improve my search skills

Higgins's are supposed to be cleverer than that 😉
The forum search sucks. However googles does not 🙂 You can use googles search and limit it to just this site which helps a lot, but only if the key words are something that you would think to use.

I'm having this same issue, using 2.4 slicer, how do I fix it? I read the link but don't see the fix.

Update the firmware on the actual printer. Make sure that the setting on the printer is set to update, and restart it.
