CTC printer and FFF settings

I have just got a new CTC printer. When I download the profile through the config assistant all is fine. But when I go to use it, it prints in the top right corner when the model is in the bottom left corner. I have tried messing with the Gcode settings but the best I can get is it will print a small print in the center if I set up the model outside of the bottom left build plate. When I move the orign offset in the Gcode it moves the bed and not the XYZ corrdinate axis. By default is it in the middle, how do I get them to move to the bottom right as it is when I use it for a big 3d printer. The software works fine for the big printer but when I try and use it on the CTC, there is nothing but problems. See pic

Re: CTC printer and FFF settings

That means the offsets for your printer are wrong. Most likely due to sailfish firmware (that has a tendency to end up with wrong offsets)
