Why is my Bed moving to very bottom when I start a print?

I’m using cura as my slicer and everything looks to be working except my bed moves to the very bottom of its limit when I start a print. My printer moves the bed up and down rather than the nozzle. I’m thinking it might be because I defined my Zmax as when the nozzle is touching the bed and was wondering if I have it flipped. Or maybe its just one line in smoothie’s config that I’m just missing.

You could share the smoothie config and the first few dozen lines of any gcode file.

Just paste them between lines with only three single backquotes, like this:

Smoothie:

```
contents of smoothie config
```

gcode:

```
beginning of gcode output
```

I figured it out. I had to flip my direction and make it where the zmin was at the top.
