The secret incantation for zeroing is "G92 Z0". when sent from pronterface
this saves the current z position as the 0 point. so once you have it at
the right height using the 0.1mm up/down buttons, just send the magic
words. if the correct position is lower than the current 0 point, you may
will first have to do "G92 Z10" in order to let it move lower.
Once you get it dialed in, i think it needs to get written into eeprom to
avoid losing the setting after a power cycle. i'm not sure if there's a
command for that or whether you will need to reflash the controller.

Hey Steve,
I've used it somewhat recently although I've since seen what looks like
some very minor damage to the build platform from improper use. I never
learned how to override the zeroing on the Z axis but I'm game to hack on
it for a bit. Best time for a quick test would be around noon weekdays -
do you have a specific part in mind? I'm going to send some models to
shapeways soon so I wouldn't mind getting our printer tuned up for a rough
draft.
Cheers,
Hol

Who's the current guru on running the 3D
printer? Is it possible to get
together and learn how to work it? Are there any 3D
printing events or
classes planned?
