Damn, and I'm 100 pages into printing the old one, I did eventually find it. Canceled. But the printer had 250 pages in the buffer before it stopped. Got the new one, got 20 pages in and ran out of yellow toner. That I had on the shelf. :) 20 more page, repeat for magenta. Probably cyan before its done, (yup, 5 more pages ;-) these are the starter cartridges and they have gone several reams of paper already, so they don't owe me a thing even if the ones I am replacing are $75+ a copy for the high mileage versions. Minor details. Now, I am still learning about "machine coordinates" AND "how to recover when you're lost". USEFUL SUGGESTION here! Lets make a modification to those instructions. Why? What if you have a workpiece in the chuck that would get in the way if you ran it to x0z0? Turns out to be very simply done as the G10L2 p1 command just copies the machine position from the G53 table to the G54 table AND it does NOT care where the machine itself is at. So the first command can just as easily be G53 G1F2 X1.5 Z2.0 to keep the tool or toolpost out of the workpiece!! Then follow the rest of the procedure and the DRO readings will be correct. Whether I have the home positions correct in the .ini remains to be seen, but I feel like I am making progress. I haver another question but I'll make a separate post for that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > ------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book > "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and > their applications.
