hey, i tried making another startup script for my velleman k8400
it looks like this:

G28 ; Home extruder
G0 X0 Z10 ; Move nozzle to X 0 Z 10
G1 E20 F100 ; Purge nozzle
G92 E0 ; Reset extruder position
G28 ; Reset Z axis

note: extruder starts @ X200 Y200 Z0
but whenever i run it the G0 X0 Z10 part is microstepping
Image

i have tried
instead of G0 X0 Z10
G1 X0 Z10 F3000

still no change

i might just be missing something, i'm not a scripter i just make the models

help is greatly appreciated

Do you have the homing directions all set to min on the G-Code tab?
