-Large motor just returns the gantry, after printing is done gantry
moves back as if it was taking the paper out of the printer, there is
a aluminum L shaped there to tell the printer the paper still on it
till when it is near the big motor then it stops, hit a switch and
it's back to the beginning.
I had it referencing before it sarts to print but it did not work
I was having problems that way, now it just moves back till find no
paper anymore that's where it references itself.

Now starts the next Step, rebuild the whole thing with better
hardware specialy the round belt. and get a structure to put it on.
