I have a any cubic Kobra plus, it worked fine for awhile, now the nozzle keeps homing off the side of the heat bed and lower than than surface of the heat bed. I have tried to use z offset to get it to come over to the right place but it keeps going back before I can get over the surface area. Any ideas on what is causing this? It is leveled.

I found the problem, Cura had the bed size for the Kobra plus larger than it’s actual size.

The profiles for non-Ultimaker printers in Cura are user contributions. So, yah, as you’ve found out, caveat emptor!
