I own several printers with ABL and mesh compensation, and they all work well. Unfortunately, this new Pro 2 isn't working for me. After several bed leveling attempts, I am seeing substantial variances in the bed mesh up to 2 mm. My other printers might show variances of .5 to .7mm at most. I can't baby step because the printer seems to be overcompensating badly. The nozzle digs into the bed in some areas and is way too high in others, and in other areas, it's spot on. This system is just not working.
The firmware shows 144 points to measure, but it spends a lot of time in the front right and back right areas of the bed with far fewer probing points on the left and back left. It's "creating" points after only probing 100-- why? I routinely see digging into the bed in the front and right front of the bed while the back left and left side are too high.
I reset the EPROM, re-executed the Z-twist, ran a new bed level mesh with the bed at 70c, saved the mesh result to all slots (as recommended by Gcreate). Re-started the printer, and I'm still seeing a very poor first layer that's unusable.
This is wildly frustrating considering the cost of this printer compared to a couple of my cheap Chinese units running circles around this Pro 2 on the first layer.
I need assistance.
