usually no settings mean that you haven't selected a printer in printer settings

fwiw - I use several types of 3d printers. All of them clog occasionally, no way around that using fdm. I did the bed mod with the springs and thumb screws - big improvement if you need to print thin or big items. As opposed to others, I reset Z frequently depending on what I am printing and how muc...

Thanks, I get that in place when board arrives

ok, but same reasoning.

ahhh good point

just pull the plug!

the wipe tower does follow the contour of the model. I do not think making it smaller at the top is a very good idea because as the size of the printed area decreases, you have trouble cooling the small area before the next layer is printed right on top of it. This is one of the things that limits p...

those 2 pictures show different wiring, is that just another source of 5V ??

where do you add the 1 M resistors??
getting a new mainboard, would be a good time to add this

I think that the purpose of the wipe tower is to catch these blobs. May I suggest that you experiment with temperature, retraction and speeds to see if you can find the source of this ooze.

another question: is that support stuck to the bottom or the bottom layer of the part?

One thing I found is that if you need support them MAXIMIZE the support you use. Print it as one continuous mass instead of separate columns and it seems to give a better bottom surface. It also seems to help to print on a raft if printing a large area of support. last, it is very very tough to get ...

very cool, I'm helping a guy at our makelab print one, did a 132 hr print for the foot. Now printer was broken and I need to do another.

nifty, I think I follow but it looks like you have a voltage divider across the control voltage for the 2 fets in parallel. Did I get that right?

Thanks, that safety bug is very disturbing. The behavior I observed seems to fit the firmware, interesting, thanks for the insights.

FWIW I printed fine using 800um nozzles and increasing extrusion width up to 1.2mm. The only thing you need to do is really cut your speed down, printed at 20mm/sec. Also need to work on temperature and retraction. Made nice clear vases in petg BUT best was still extrusion width 800um and layer ht 6...

disable steppers and make sure you aren't getting any binding ofthecarriage

I have seen that as well, it seems to print a skirt rather than brim when printing with a raft.

when It just reaches 250C on the home temperature screen, I go right to load and it'll say 245 and take a minute to get to 250. Its all working fine, so I am not too concerned, it just seems odd that the temperature readings are "lagging" on the load screen. THis has happened repeatedly an...

you need to do a hard reset. there are old posts on the forum for that using that edge connector unless you have one of the newer models with a reset button. using a wire with at-least 1 female socket then short the 6th pin down on the left to the first pin down on the right row of pins, this is not...
