Does the laser reposition the origin after running the program?

Hi all, I’ve been running Lightburn on an Ortur LM3 for about a month now, and a new issue has developed.
I’m running a batch of bookmarks with this program, and it starts up fine, frames my object in workspace center, and runs the program in workspace center. But then…
IF I PRESS START AGAIN: It repeats the program, but about 30mm to the left.
IF I FRAME AGAIN: It frames my object about 30mm to the left.
IF I PRESS “HOME”: It goes to home normally, UNLESS I “frame” first. Then it tries to home outside workspace boundary to the left.
IF I “MOVE TO POSITION”: It moves to 30mm left of entered position, UNLESS I click “move from machine zero”.
So my workaround right now is between each piece I must use “move” (with “move from machine zero” activated) to move the laser head to workspace center, and then reframe from there. Which is not only extra steps to slow me down, but I’m obviously missing something fundamental here that I need to learn. I’ve watched a couple videos on machine origin setting, and searched for this same issue.
What am I missing?

11-14This problem is still persisting. If I allow the program to run 30mm to the left, it then resets to run 30mm to the left of THAT. It gradually moves where it thinks machine center is, approx. 30mm to the left each program cycle.
