I'm not talking about the auto bed leveling, I'm using the new mesh bed leveling. I used to use ABL and your sequence is correct for that, but with mesh bed leveling, there is no use of the probe. You have to manually set all the points in the grid and then they get stored in EEPROM. So you do that exercise once, and then every time you turn on the machine, those points are read from EEPROM and used for printing.
I almost have the new Bed Leveling software ready. It is based on a High Resolution Mesh and uses the Z-Probe to acquire most of the points. The rest of the Mesh can be filled in by editing the Mesh or manually probing the height of the various points that are not reachable by the Z-Probe.
Hey Roxy,
Nice to see you. I talked to you a bit over on 3dprintboard last year when you were doing some work on enhancing the G29 command for ABL. I see now you are listed as part of the Marlin development team. Glad to see it.
I have to admit when I first looked at mesh bed leveling this week end, my first thought was "what? I can't use my probe to measure the points in the mesh???". But then after running through the procedure, I kind of liked using the actual nozzle to determine the points and I was pretty impressed with the results. Printing a one layer test object I made, the layer was consistently smooshed(?!) across the entire bed.
