The Z-axis is correctly probed and calibrated using the Z-probe
Everything checks out as normal
When I run the Carve, the cut starts about 3mm above the material? So I always have to “compensate” by adding 3mm to the cutting depth (so if I wan’t a depth of 2mm, I need to set 5mm).
I don’t see what I am doing wrong.
I’d recalibrate your Z axis steps per mm. ( $102) This probably has to be done a few times to really zero in on it.
Is the height of your Z-Probe not correctly accounted for?

How do I make the software account for the Z probe? I don’t think there is an option in the basic UI flow (I’m a total novice)
During the Z-Probe setup, you can get to the Advanced Settings here…
Once there, you can update the Z-Probe Touch Plate thickness as shown below. You will need to use a set of calipers to ensure the thickness is exactly correct.

In Easel to to Machine then to Set up machine
When you go through the steps it will take you through setting up your Z-Probe, then you will see the screen like Brandon shared.
