    yep thats how I roll with mine lol. Both R2s and the C2 are all manual. I loan machines out to local EDU places in my area and they get it without autolevel and LOVE it. Its been years but WAAAAYYYYY back (@mark tomlinson and @WheresWaldo will recall) autolevel wasn't a thing...then when it was it was awful. Now its better but not perfect.

    @Geof @TransBat Thanks again for all this knowledge!

    I had great success last night. Printing first layer repeatedly with auto level off.

    I will say I don't have issues with my MK3 with auto level....think the probe style makes a huge difference. I put a buildtak flex plate on it as well and still run auto level with no issues. Feel like Robo put the cart before the horse on a few things.

    Thanks again guys!

    Glad you are successfully printing again. The help from the forum members here is the reason I was able to work through so many different issues (and a high newb learning curve) and truly begin enjoying my first 3D printers (R2/C2) and achieve decent (and sometimes better) results :p
