Here's what's going on:
- Extruder won't keep position properly, as in it prints too high. I have manually changed the z-offset during and before prints, it may help temporarily, but the very next layer it goes back to printing too high.
- Printer "works" fine but prints like garbage. Work being in quotes because when I warm up the hot end filament comes out, nothing is clogged. Everything moves fine, no issues with step motors or anything like that. It's only when it starts printing it starts giving issues.
- My best guess is that this is a wiring issue as I've tried 3 different slicer programs (with wildly different settings on all 3) all with the same results.

I have already been back and forth with Lulzbot support for over a week and can't seem to get anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
