<p>I just received my new Creality Ender 3. I was going through and checking/adjusting everything for alignment, and I noticed that when you &quot;auto home&quot; the print head, the nozzle stops off the front of the print bed by 5-10 mm.</p>
<p>Is that normal?</p>
<p>Is it perhaps by design to allow purging the nozzle without dumping on the bed?</p>
<p>It doesn't appear that there is any way to adjust the Y stop switch without making modifications to it. It also didn't look like there was any easy way to move the bed either.</p>

Yes, this is the "intended" behavior, as the home in relation to the physical limit position is not placed correctly about 7.5 mm into the bed in both X and Y.
to correct this, please look at the
Recalibrating Home-position
