<p>I just downloaded slic3r and setup my settings on it, but when I sliced and started the print, the head went off the bed and then tried to print. It doesn't matter what I set the origin to, it still does the same thing. Does someone more knowledgable with slic3r know how to fix this?</p>

Please post screen shots of the build plate settings. Also state printer type or bed size. You can get some more information from [this question](/q/11259).

Did you set slic3r with the correct print volume dimensions for your printer?

Yes I did, I also said it was the ender 3 (220 220 rectangle), and that it didnt matter the build plate settings, it always did the same thing no matter what settings it had
