First of all I have a Kossel K800 printer that I got from a kit on ebay and I have a very limited knowledge of 3d printers. My problem is that my printer has all of it's units scaled up tenfold. When I'm using the RepRap LCD and I calibrate the z axis, instead of moving 1mm at a time, it moves about 20mm instead and it thinks it only moved 1 mm. This causes an overwrite from the firmware (Repetier v0.92), which I had previously set the height of the printer to around 300mm, and instead my printer says it has a height of 22.6mm. This prevents me from printing anything because my X and Y axis are also scaled up like this. I've already tried editing the resolution of the steppers. At one point I had the resolution at 10000 steps/mm and another I had the resolution at 6 steps/mm. Editing the resolution of the motors didn't do anything to the printer. I would try Marlin however I have my Z-Stepper motor connected to the E1 pin and I'm not sure how to configure this in Marlin.
