Z height - first line in layer

Hey,

I noticed every new layer begins with the Z lifting a bit.

How do I cancel that?

example:

T1
; tool H1.000 W1.700
; skirt
G1 X93.896 Y57.518 Z4.000 F1200
G1 X93.896 Y57.518 Z1.000 F1200
G1 X93.901 Y57.510 Z1.000 E0.0069 F600
G1 X93.951 Y57.422 Z1.000 E0.0716 F600

thanxs.

Re: Z height - first line in layer

... never seen a gcode like this!
The normal format looks like my example, the Z-value is global, given out in front of all commands for this layer. Next layer >>> next Z-value ... a.s.o.

Please attache your factory-file here, complete with the sliced model.
