+====== Why shouldn't the z offset be saved? ======
+{{tag> faq}}
+Wouldn't it make sense to have the printer save the z offset? It gets "lost" between RESTARTs and power cycling.
+=====Answer:=====
+For various different reasons the value isn't a consistent single value worth saving:
+  * varies by filament
+  * varies by initial layer height
+  * if using with an uncalibrated probe and so including an error adjustment value this won't be a consistent value with saving because of the changing error adjustment.
