Is your feature request related to a problem?

Just a suggestion; some printers like mine have "non-standard" components (it's a Tronxy X1 that has been pimped a little, running klipper on a 32bit mcu at around 200mm/s print speeds).
It still has the stock Z axis leadscrew which moves Z @ 2mm per rotation on 1.8 degree steppers running at 64 steps from the tmc2209 drivers.
This means the Z axis resolution is 0.03125mm. It is what I use in the JusPrin/Orca printer config file.
When testing JusPrin tonight; it didn't seem to analyse my printer config and recommended a 0.24mm layer height for a fast Benchy print. When I queried this with the AI, it apologised and correctly calculated the resolution (0.03125) then recommended new print settings using a 0.25mm first layer, then subsequent layers at 0.03125mm, lol!

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

Correctly analyse the printer config and use it to calculate better print settings.
Additionally having a little wizard to help people input their printer configs (if no matching profile is found) would be pretty cool for noobs.
