I just started my first 3D print using Fusion 360 in place of my previous slicer. So far the results are turning out pretty good. However, I had to set the z-offset for my printer on the unit itself. Is there a way to apply this setting so that it gets embedded into the gcode. It would be helpful to prevent me from forgetting to set it before a print starts.

I don't do 3D printing but I would think once you set your z-depth on the printer you are good to go until you have to take the build plate off for cleaning (if that is a thing) because you are also starting your print at the same Z every time?
