    Using the M565 directly in your startup GCode a larger negative value starts the extruder further from the bed and a smaller negative value starts it closer. Since I do not use MC I can not tell you how their interface handles the values. You can try the matterhackers forum (the ones who wrote it) if nobody else can help : https://forums.matterhackers.com/

    I doubt this is anything related to firmware. I would suspect MatterControl first and foremost.
    There are a number of free slicer/host programs out there:
    Cura, Repetier host, etc. Feel free to try them and see if you can't get the Z offset entered into the Startup GCode block, something like this:

    G28 ; home all axes
    M565 Z-1.0 ; set the offset for auto-leveling mechanism -- adjust this to get a perfect 1st layer
    G29 ; run auto-level


    We use Simplify3D.

    I think he believes the slicer is his firmware ? The software you put your model in and press print is your slicer, you dont want to play with the firmware for this issue

    I mainly use Cura. It is free. There is a whole thread on how to set it up under the Software forum. I would suggest downloading the older 15.04.6 version instead of the 2.x version. There is already a profile in the 15.04.6 for the Robo and you can adjust the start gcode like Mark mentioned easily.
