Looks like you have it set to load the profile "default" instead of "bed60"
Also worth asking, did you have your start gcode set in your slicer previously and if so, did you delete it out of there now that you're using klipper macros?
For me, in Cura, I simply have START_PRINT and END_PRINT in the start/end fields in the Cura settings. Based on your macro title, it would be PRINT_BEGIN and PRINT_END
Yeah forgot that I switched to default again to make sure it wasn't something with the different profiles messing it up. I update the mesh before every print now, once it's reached temp.
I did have my start gcode in the slicer before, but that's been replaced with the macro.
I'll try to check mine when I'm back home later. I just use the default profile since I don't ever adjust anything with the bed unless it's out of spec. Even printing at slightly different temps doesn't seem to affect anything as far as bed leveling is concerned.
Yeah I'm not seeing any significant deviations in the mesh based on temps either.
Could you also post the [bed_mesh] section of printer.cfg?
Sure
[bed_mesh] speed: 150 horizontal_move_z: 5 mesh_min: 25, 17 mesh_max: 220, 200 algorithm: bicubic bicubic_tension: 0.5 probe_count: 6, 6
What type of probe and what's the config on it?
Is what I've got my pinda probe configured with, was playing around with sample tolerances like I have on my printer with a tap probe but I just found the inductive probe has a lot of variation, I added more samples to hopefully average out that error.
Is my mesh setup, based on a mk3s klipper config. Meshes look a little odd but I ran some bed level prints fine and just ran a full plate of abs with pretty consistent 1st layer.
