Introduction
I've upgraded my Anet A8 stock hotend to the E3D v6. The mounting for the hotend is slightly different, so that the printer isn't correctly centered to the bed. When printing small things their isn't any problem, but when I wanted to print things that nearly take the hole buildplate it can be tricky to align the things so that they are printed fully on the platform not midair.
These instructions should help you edit your Start-Gcode to counteract this problem.
