the spool says not to exceed 250

I actually lowered it to 250 and turned off the fan and it didn’t help.

beacon hovers over the bed. it doesnt touch anything.

I looked at your guide and theres something interesting mentioned for my model, the trident. the actual temp is lower that the measured temp on the top of the bed due to the thickness of the bed! I shoudl raise it by 10 degrees. I’m going to try that in a bit

I notice my open air bambu labs p1p doest have any problems like this and it doesnt need a heat soak. Isnt the voron a better machine with higher quality parts?

its a 25 minute heat soak before each and every print. I wonder if I should break that out of the print start macro and make its own macro.

its a magnetic sheet so that shouldn’t throw anything off. I flipped to the smooth side of the sheet which is much takier but its still having the same issues.

I am constantly manually tweaking Z offset at the start of prints so here’s hoping the heatsoak solves that.

I have reworked the start_print gcode macro to incorporate a heat soak before scanning for a mesh. While its running that 20 minute soak, I notice that the temperature reading on the beacon coil is actual dropping while everything else is increasing during the soak. Is just above the bed, in the center, doors closed, and its readings are getting steadily lower. What could possibly cause that?

EDIT: Here’s where I ended up with my printer.cfg file for my 300 mm^3 voron trident. Do you see anything suspicious? https://pastebin.com/AxxEypK4

should I have it remesh each time, save, then load the mesh at the start of each print or should I just have it recall a saved mesh?

I noticed something while printing. it doesnt have a bed mesh loaded when it prints. it saves the last mesh, but doesnt load it. why?

cranked up the mesh points and switched from lagrange mesh to bicubic. here we are at 35x25 points. weird, I see spikes.

Oh and to answer your question, there is one linear rail on the X axis.

Where could that twist be?
