    so upgraded to the xxl screen that everyone seems to say to get which there rite :p
    everything prints fine with one small problem when the print is done it moves to the back of the bed instead of foward?

    Just depends what your end g-code tells it to do. What software were you using before? What did you slice in.

    i have been using cura now and saving it to the sd card

    this is my end code

    ;End GCode
    M104 S0 ;extruder heater off
    M140 S0 ;heated bed heater off (if you have it)
    G91 ;relative positioning
    G1 E-1 F300 ;retract the filament a bit before lifting the nozzle, to release some of the pressure
    G1 Z+0.5 E-5 X-20 Y-20 F{travel_speed} ;move Z up a bit and retract filament even more
    G28 X0 Y0 ;move X/Y to min endstops, so the head is out of the way
    M84 ;steppers off
    G90 ;absolute positioning
    ;{profile_string}

    Yup, you can see it right there, G28 X0 Y0 which homes the X and Y axis, then it shut everything off.

    You'd need to replace that G28 with a G1 command and tell X and Y to go back instead of forward

    It's really basic. Think of it like the software telling the printer where to go

    G1 is a basic move command

    then you tell it what you want to move, in this case X and Y

    You can add some other strings after this but it's not necessary.

    http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code this is my favorite reference.
