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

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)
