Fiber vs metal sheet

Anybody knows if there's a difference in thickness, between the metal sheet and the fiber sheet? 

I triy to make the first layer adjustment and it was perfect.. then I through the fiber sheet on and it was completely off?? 🤔🤨

Isente the probe supposed to adjust for that?

Prusa only sells two kinds of sheets: Both are steel sheets. One with thin textured powder-coated PEI and one with a smooth PEI sticker foil.

By fiber sheet you mean powder-coated? The one with rough surface? If yes, then your thinking is correct, there is a height difference. Unfortunately current firmware does not have profiles for sheets yet and you have to afjust it manually.

 

If you mean any other spring steel plates than smooth green-brown-ish and textured brown, I am not sure what other he could have sold you.
