An option is to follow my guide here. So you know the actual machine 0,0, then you can setup your project to use that origin. Then if you quickly open the gcode file and put a “G53” right at the beginning, it’ll always use machine zero, OR jog the machine to 0,0 on X/Y and set origin there so no fiddling around.
You WILL have to set the height every run though, if your material reaches the center of the machine, the auto should work, otherwise you will have to use the touch-down manual method. I do wish they had a third option of manually entering the thickness like the old 1.6W. I also wish they would let you jog the auto mode, that’d be awesome and solve a lot of issue.
