    I was able to finally get a complete print! It's not very good, but at least it completed without becoming a mess. I included some pictures in case anyone can help me figure out some additional calibrations I need to make.

    Z-offset is at 0.55mm (Robo recommended 1.25mm, but I couldn't get PLA to touch the bed at that height)

    Seems like all the corners are messed up on the cube. image.jpg

    A couple of questions:

    1. Which program are you using to print?

    2. Assuming the answer for 1 is MatterControl, did you install this from the disk or from the website?

    3. If using MatterControl, which slicer are you using? MatterSlicer, Cura or Slic3r?

    4. Are you using any sort of adhesive on the bed? Hair spray, glue stick?

    . For this print I was using glue stick.
