    I installed the XXL LCD screen and did a few prints perfectly, but now for some reason the calibration is set at the top of the last print. So the next print will start at about 4" above the print bed. Anyone know how to correct this? The Auto home function also takes it to about 4" above the bed. Thanks in advance.

    Do the paper leveling. Put a piece of paper on the bed and lower the carriage until it's barely touching. You should be able to move it side to side without a chance in height.

    Fixed. One of the z switches got moved so the z axis could only go up. put the switch back in place and it's back to normal. Anyone know how the z switches get rotated?

    They are easy to move. You probably bumped it when you flipped the printer to install the LCD as I said before.
    At least now you know how to identify and fix it :)
