    I'm currently trying to use slic3r for the R2 and for some reason i can't seem to get it to work, it runs through and the bed moves down and then it starts printing in air. So any recommendation for the setting for the Slic3r for Robo. Do i need to make changes tot he Z offset currently it's set at 250. Do i change it to what is initially the home offset?

    Are you sure Z offset is 250 mm? It should be under 20 mm for the R2.

    Yeah I resettled. And then finally ended at -.25, which results in really nice first layer but the second and so on forth there is massive gap between each string laid down any idea how to fix that.

    I haven't used Slic3r in a very long time. Not sure what would cause that. I don't even have it installed on my new PC. Did you double check Layer Height and Printer Settings to check Start G-code?

    I’m going go trough that right after coffee, but I’m assuming that’s probably the issue as well
