New to the forum, not that new to 3D printing. Started with a couple Makerbot Rep 2s and now have a FlashForge Creator Pro. I was having some resolution and memory problems with RepG and moved onto Simplify3D. I have yet to have a successful print with S3D.
I use BuildTak, which is a new method for me. I used to use the ABS/Acetone mix with great results but wanted something less toxic and easier to manage and cleanup. Well, I can't get the Simplify3D Software to properly space the Z axis 0.25-0.3 mm off the print bed. It is TOO CLOSE every single time, no matter what I try. I've used the G-Code Global Offset, put the machine Z home 0.3 mm down (tried both positive and negative values), tried updating the machine definition origin offset, and have even tried raising the model 0.3 mm upon setup.
What am I doing wrong? I spent $150 for this software and can't get it to work properly. I have spent approximately 72 hours debugging and testing new parameters and I'm at a loss. The software does NOT properly control the machine.
Running SailFish 7.7. I've attached the snips of my setup below, PLEASE HELP!
