[QUESTION] START_PRINT: I have a probe issue with temp pulling #19
Description
OK..... I am new to Klipper and I'm really close to going back to Marline. Your guide has been helpful. I'm can not even get the first layer on the Benchy to print. It will not stick to the bed, almost like my z offset is off. I have calibrated everything multiple time. I have deleted the "saved" data in my printer.cfg file and recalibrated again. Now I am starting to see if my macros are the issue.
I am now using your START_PRINT: I have a probe macro instead of my start g code in Orca. but now it's not pulling my filament Temp setting from Orca. it's printing with the "default" setting in your macro.
ALSO...... I can't get the damn purge to work either.

## NOTE: The adaptive meshing feature requires exclude_object ##

## To mesh without it just use BED_MESH_CALIBRATE ##
